How do you move through campus at night?

Where is outdoor lighting working well? Where could it be improved?

Take the Campus Illumination Survey today!

Campus Illumination--a Campus Sustainability Fund project--wants to better understand how the campus is experienced when it is dark. The team hopes to collect your invaluable feedback through an interactive map survey to use as a foundation for creating a roadmap toward sustainable exterior lighting at the UW.

The project is led by an interdisciplinary team from the Integrated Design Lab, the Office of the University Architect, and Seattle City Light's Lighting Design Lab to guide the UW as it transitions to more energy efficient outdoor lighting. The project is looking at sustainable lighting from a comprehensive perspective, encompassing efficiency, maintainability, wildlife impact, and the human experience. The roadmap is set to be completed in the Spring quarter of 2017.
