Maroon is Green

College of Architecture student groups
collaborate on sustainable campus initiative

 

A college-wide program aimed at enhancing green practices throughout the Langford Architecture Center will be officially launched with a gala Earth Day celebration on April 22.

The program is a joint project of the Texas A&M chapters of the American Institute of Architecture Students, the American Society of Landscape Architecture Students and Emerging Green Builders.

The three student groups gathered in the Langford A atrium Wednesday evening to begin planning the event. They’ve divided into four working group: one to tackle educational issues, another targeting outreach, one focusing on the acquisition of recycling bins for the college and the other charged with figuring out how the recycle bins can be sustainably managed.

To help coordinate activities, the group has started a global “Maroon is Green” group on Facebook. To learn how you can get involved, contact any member of the three participating student orgainizations.
