Overview
The Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE)
The Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE) has developed a Sustainability Tracking, Assessment, and Rating System (STARS) for gauging relative progress toward sustainability for colleges and universities. The system is similar to the LEED (Leadership in Energy Environmental Design) green building rating system; however, STARS will be applied to an entire campus, rather than a single building or set of buildings, and will evaluate social responsibility in addition to environmental stewardship.
