The College of St. Benedict (CSB) and St. John's University (SJU) operate a joint academic program-- and are joint members of AASHE --but maintain separate physical campuses five miles apart. Accordingly, campus operations are largely separate, except for transportation. The operations highlights are as follows: CSB: President Baenninger is a charter signatory of the ACUPCC and a member of the Leadership Circle. The college completed its greenhouse gas audit in 2008 and is on target to submit its first climate action plan in September 2009. As part of the ACUPCC process the president established the College Sustainability Council, which advises the president on sustainability issues and drafts sustainability policy for the college. Among the results of the committee's first 18 months of operation were the decision to construct a campus health center in unfinished space below a residence hall (rather than building new), a comittment to green building in all new construction (including a major new academic building now in the preliminary design phase), an external audit of our recycling program, an external review of our power plant and energy management systems, a review of our landscape design standards, and exploration of alternatives meeting our campus energy and transportation needs. In 2009 the committee secured funding for a full-time sustainability fellowship position that will begin in the fall. SJU: The late President Dietrich Reinhart was also a charter ACUPCC signatory. As a result of his action a Climate Action Committee was established in 2008, building on an existing "energy comitttee," to further coordinate campus sustainability efforts. The committee oversaw the greenhouse gas auditing process in 2008 and is currently drafting the climate action plan due this fall. Among other projects underway or recently completed are the installation of a 3.5kW solar PV array on the New Science Building, the construction of a LEED-silver community center to be commissioned in August 2009, and several extensive feasibility studies including one on wind power, one on commercial-scale solar PV, one on biomass as an alternative to coal for our cogen plant, and a fourthon using deep lake water for cooling in the summers. St. John's has also managed a major Arboretum, as noted above, since 1998. CSB/SJU also jointly operation "The Link," a bussing system that moves approximately 5,000 riders between the two campuses (about five miles each way) seven days a week, reducing private automobile traffic dramatically.
