Whatcom Community College continues to lead by example when it comes to sustainability. With multiple campus buildings achieving LEED certification, the college has demonstrated a strong commitment to energy efficiency, environmental responsibility, and long-term stewardship.
LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification is a globally recognized standard for sustainable building. From energy-efficient systems to responsible site planning, WCC’s facilities are designed with both students and the planet in mind.
As part of these green initiatives, solar power is helping the college further reduce its carbon footprint and utility costs—freeing up more resources for student programs and campus improvements. It’s a practical and inspiring model of how renewable energy and smart design can come together to support a thriving learning environment.
