Campus Improvements

Enhance Our Infrastructure while emphasizing Sustainability and Accessibility

As opportunities are presented to update and modernize our campus, we must be diligent in our efforts towards being both global partners and fully inclusive.  In this next chapter, our community must embrace sustainability and accessibility initiatives during capital projects, preparing campus for the next generation of Laurentians.

The University views environmental sustainability as a core value.  We are committed to promoting, supporting, and facilitating sustainability across the curriculum and throughout our campus by exploring environmental issues, embracing sustainable practices, increasing composting and reducing waste.
