Does the institution have sustainability-themed housing (residential floor or hall, or theme house) where residents learn about sustainability together and to which residents must apply?:
Yes

A brief description of the themed housing:

The LMU Center for Service and Action House that resides off campus is a house where students are passionate about world issues and are committed to devoting their free time to such pursuits. The residents must live by the four post-grad pillars: Spirituality, Social Justice, Community, and Simple Living. The house was not established for the sole purpose of sustainability, but many of the precepts that the residents ascribe to fulfill the necessary requirements. Simple Living, one of the four pillars is meant to challenge the residents to reduce waste, recycle, reuse, and conserve water. Some of the residents’ personal projects include the reusable bottle campaign on campus as well as participating in the Beyond Coal Campaign spearheaded by the Sierra Club.
