The Princeton Review has released its fourth annual Green Honor Role of colleges and Universities in the U.S. These schools were ranked on a scale of 60 to 99, based on a survey that asked questions about academic offerings, energy use, recycling, food, buildings and transportation.
Some of the universities on the Green Honor Role made the list by attaining zero-waste, maintaining their own forests and wetlands and powering their campuses with alternative energy.
Here is an alphabetized list of the 16 colleges that were awarded the coveted rating of 99, earning them a place on the 2012 Green College Honor Roll:
American University (Washington DC)
Arizona State University (Tempe, Ariz.)
College of the Atlantic (Bar Harbor, Maine)
Dickinson College (Carlisle, Pa.)
Georgia Institute of Technology (Atlanta, Ga.)
