Sac State has three LEED Gold buildings: American River Courtyard, The Ernst E. Tschannen science building and The WELL. In all the LEED Gold campus buildings, signage exists near the LEED plaque explaining the rating as well as sustainable building attributes. The WELL offers a self-guided walking tour of the facility highlighting sustainable attributes via signage throughout the building. Signage is also featured in the Science 2 building and Parking Structure 5, featuring all of the green initiatives seen throughout each structure. Signs also highlight the 23 LID sites on campus, which explain the processes by which they filter 1.6 million gallons of rainwater each year.

Sac State's Sustainability Team highlights sustainability efforts through a Campus Sustainability Tour, with over 20 points of interest and discussion. These tours are offered to prospective and current students, as well as members of the community. A full copy of the tours features can be found in the optional fields box below.

A Google Earth tour was also created by a student and can be viewed at this link: https://earth.google.com/web/@38.5594374,-121.42410415,9.70185487a,2581.17113673d,30y,0h,0t,0r/data=MikKJwolCiExOWdNSVI3OF9lTzdsT094V0dDUFJycGRzempnR1FTcGYgAToDCgEw

The California State University System (CSU) and Sacramento State are committed to integrating sustainability into teaching, service, research and facilities management—in other words, to weave “green practices” into every facet of the University. Thus, Housing and Residential Life staff encourages residents to make environmentally-conscious decisions while in living in the residence halls, and to reduce, reuse, and recycle whenever they can through activity nights, bulletin board displays and signage.
