We focus a lot on facilities and the operational side of sustainability on this blog, but the research being done on campuses is equally important, so we'd like to draw your attention to Shawn Lesser's round-up of the top ten cleantech research universities

Lesser notes that, "While many dotcom companies were started by students out of their dorm
rooms or basements, don’t look for a similar trend in the cleantech
world. You need a lot more than a desktop and a good Internet-based
idea. You need specialized resources that you usually can find at a
university."

Among the top ten schools are several that Campus Ecology has highlighted in the past, including Washington State, CU-Boulder, and the University of Wisconsin
