The renovations in this building included, but were not limited to, removal of asbestos containing material, replacement of major mechanical (heating/cooling/plumbing/sprinkler) and electrical (power/lighting/fire alarm) systems, re-configuration of classroom spaces, installation of classroom media systems, lecture halls, administrative office areas, and floor plan. The Peters and Schlegel Building was designed to LEED Certification and reduce greenhouse gas emission.
The following sustainable measures were included:
