A brief description of the institution’s main campus and other aspects of the institutional boundary used to complete this report:
Campus size: 400 acres and 35 buildings

13 residence halls, housing about 3600 students

280-acre Schmeeckle Nature Reserve on campus

3 College of Natural Resources Field Stations (Central Wisconsin Environmental Station, Schmeeckle Reserve, and Treehaven) and additional managed forests owned by the university.

Aquaponics Innovation Center and two branch campus locations in Wausau and Marshfield.

A natural history museum located in the science building next to the planetarium

Which of the following features are present on campus and which are included within the institutional boundary?:
Present? Included?
Agricultural school No No
Medical school No No
Other professional school with labs or clinics (e.g. dental, nursing, pharmacy, public health, veterinary) Yes Yes
Museum Yes Yes
Satellite campus Yes Yes
Farm larger than 2 hectares or 5 acres No No
Agricultural experiment station larger than 2 hectares or 5 acres Yes Yes
Hospital No No

The rationale for excluding any features that are present from the institutional boundary:
We have four field stations in our greenhouse gas inventory and consider them “satellite campuses”. The acreage for each station is included in our total campus area. All buildings located at each field station are included in our gross floor area of building space. All energy consumption, (electric, gas, LP gas) from the field stations are reported in our greenhouse gas inventory and are therefore included in our total carbon emissions.
One of the field stations, the Northern Aquaculture Demonstration Facility, is a 40-acre agricultural experiment station. We have an Aquaponics Innovation Center designated as an experimental farm.
UW-Stevens Point has a Clinical Lab Science program, a pre-nursing program and a RN to BSN completion program.
We also have a Paper Science and Engineering program with a pilot paper machine.
