<p>Hey there. My college essay has to do with green building, and I have a reference to each college for a green building on their campus. I was wondering if anyone knew of any green building on Princeton's campus. They don't have to be LEED certified, but have to be the whole sustainable/green thing. If anyone could help me out, it'd be much appreciated. Plus, if anyone wants to read my essay, I'd appreciate it. </p>
<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>It really depends on what you define as "green" building. LEED certification doesn't tell you the whole picture, though, of course, it is very likely that any of the recently constructed buildings at Princeton (or any other top university) are going for LEED. Yale, for example, has tons of LEED Gold buildings and are halfway finished with a LEED Platinum one that may be the most environmentally advanced in the world.</p>
<p>Personally, however, I think "green/sustainable" has a lot more to do with social and cultural factors than whether a building's windows were manufactured in the same state or whether solar cells are used on the roof.</p>
