Green Campus

Sustainability Program

Jacksonville University values the natural environment in which we learn, work, and play. From our LEED Gold Marine Science Research Institute and solar photovoltaic panels to tankless hot water heaters and water bottle filling stations, we strive to reduce our carbon footprint, as well as our usage of natural resources.

Recycling Program

Our single-stream recycling program makes it convenient to recycle all across campus. We recycle our used printer toner and ink cartridges through a special program in which the proceeds benefit local non-profits.

Locally Sourced Produce

Located in the Sunshine state, Jacksonville University takes advantage of the long growing season and abundance of local farms through our partnership with Aramark. It is a priority to purchase, as much as possible, seasonally available produce within a 250-mile radius.
