How Is LB Measuring Up?

Almost a year since the new Madrone hall opened and innovations are still underway, i.e. the solar terrace in the courtyard. With the promises of energy efficient windows and words like sustainability thrown around how has the improvements helped the College really?
The college dedicates an entire section in the "About LBCC" tab on their homepage. The page, defining sustainability uses the new campus icon as its home picture as it lauds the college's effort to become more sustainable and less wasteful. Its obvious that big picture we are succeeding as a college and new ideas and buildings come into light. The new student's for sustainability club is a glowing example of students taking initiative on this as well as the all staff committee already in place. So how far have we come?
