"By constantly having their energy consumption displayed on the GreenTouchscreen®, our students are developing a new awareness of how their habits impact the environment. It also invokes a sense of energy competitiveness between the students that live there. Having the website available to the rest of the campus (and the world) sends a message of 'we care' in the sense of environmental stewardship." Mike Lubberden, Director, Construction and Energy Management Central College Pella, Iowa

Morrill Hall Rededication Features GreenTouchscreen

Ames, IA – Iowa State University’s historical Morrill Hall held its rededication ceremony Friday, April 20th. Featured in the newly renovated building is a GreenTouchscreen® kiosk recognizing the donors of the renovation, and educating visitors about its rich history and many environmentally friendly aspects.

Morrill Hall is one of the oldest buildings on campus, built in 1891. Rather than demolishing the building, which closed in 1998 due to deterioration, the university began fundraising for the restoration in 2001. With funding from over 3,000 individuals the restoration was complete just in time for the university’s 2007 VEISHEA celebration.

In order to share the abundant history and many unique features of the building, Morrill Hall displays a GreenTouchscreen® kiosk developed by Quality Attributes Software. Many pages, enriched with historical facts and pictures, renew the culture and spirit of the university. A building directory allows users to easily locate specific rooms and view donor descriptions. Donors can be searched by room, name, or donor classification.

“Morrill Hall is a historical icon because it was named in honor of Vermont Senator Justin Morrill, sponsor of the Morrill Act of 1862 establishing the land-grant college system. QAS is proud that Iowa State selected GreenTouchscreen® to showcase the history, donor recognition and green features,” said Craig Engelbrecht, CMO of QAS who employs many ISU Alumni. “The GreenTouchscreen® kiosk will become a staple of the new Morrill Hall for years to come.”

Morrill Hall is the first example of sustainable building on the Iowa State Campus. This summer Iowa State University will apply for a United States Green Building Council (USGBC) Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) certification. Displayed on the GreenTouchscreen® kiosk is an interactive LEED® Checklist presenting information on every credit Morrill Hall will be applying for.
