Orr, center, teaching ecological design at Oberlin College
"We need a paradigm shift in terms of what we mean by green education or green design
What I saw happening was, all over the country, universities and architecture and designs schools were adding pieces of it but not making it the core of the curriculum." But change is occurring, with a small number of colleges and universities leading the way
The University of Oregon in Eugene has integrated sustainable design into the curriculum of the School of Architecture and Allied Arts
Within the school is the Ecological Design Center, which offers programs and an annual conference on ecological design..
The Ecological Design Center announced today that the third and final phase of its $100, 000 project to bring solar energy to the University of Oregon campus is complete
In the spring of 2001, the Ecological Design Center (EDC) was awarded a $100, 000 grant from the ASUO to install a grid-tied photovoltaic system on university rooftops
The grantâs goal was to fund enduring and environmentally responsible projects that benefit the entire student body, and the Ecological Design Center was able to increase the size of the project by 25% by taking advantage of a tax credit given by the Oregon Department of Energy for renewable energy projects
