Ball State University – Studebaker East Residence Hall Earns LEED Gold!
Occupied by students in January 2013, the Studebaker East Residence Hall has already made an impact on the Ball State University Campus. It has become the first building on campus to achieve LEED Gold certification. A major contributor to achieving this level of certification was the use of valance mechanical units that tie into the campus geothermal loop, maximizing the efficiency of the system. The mechanical system earned 14 of the project’s 66 points. Other key sustainability points were awarded for site items and materials.
