"The College's green building initiative is to construct a facility that will be a showcase and 'living laboratory' for
sustainable development and that will qualify for Platinum Level certification in the Leadership in Energy
and Environmental Design (LEED) rating system of the U.S. Green Building Council. This facility, will be unique
in the State of Florida and will provide, among many other things, a comfortable, healthy environment and good
support space for faculty, staff and students." - Karl K. Stevens, Dean, College of Engineering and Computer Science
