Other Residence Halls

Sustainable Initiatives
All of the earlier generation dorms try to incorporate as many sustainable initiatives as they can. Sustainable practices that have been implemented into this dorms include:
Recycling:
All residence halls include move-in and out recycling bins along with in-room recycling. Additionally all dorms have hydration stations that curtail disposable water bottle usage. Through the continued use of these, residence halls have curbed waste output.
Water Efficiency:
In an effort to reduce water usage all residence halls use low-flow shower heads. These low-flow water heads have reduced water use by 26% or 7.5 million gallons.
Energy Efficiency:
All residence halls have switched to low wattage lamps for greater energy efficient lighting and to reduce overall carbon footprint. Along with these, all residence halls have new steam traps that have enriched sustainable growth.
Through these sustainable initiatives UW-L hopes to make its older dormitories more energy efficient while reducing their carbon footprint.
