The green campus is an international
environment program for campus or university that
focuses on environmental issues, innovation, and
research and apply it on daily campus management.
Green campus aims to realize awareness and
environmental action as intrinsic part of education
activities (Environmental Education, 2013).
The green campus has become a concern since
last two decades. Education became one of the
strategic places to promote the concept of
sustainability (Huyuan and Yang, 2012). Green
university means having sustainability regulations
implemented on university operational and
education procedures. The green university has
several aspects such as operational, management and
curriculum development (Yeh, 2006).
The green campus assessment conducted by
(UIGreenMetric, 2015) based on six indicators and
each indicator has different weighting. Currently, the
UIGreenMetric indicator is a reference in green
campus assessment in Indonesia. The six indicators
are structuring and infrastructure, energy and climate
change, waste management, water usage,
transportation and education.
2.1 Green Building
One of the parties that focuses on green building
issues is Green Building Council Indonesia (GBCI,
2016). GBCI have indicators that are used to assess
the application of green concepts in buildings and
issued certificate for buildings that have applied
green concepts consists of platinum, gold and bronze
awards. Certification is done on the new building,
existing building, interior room, home, and area.
Implementation of the green concept is not only
applied at home, office and commercial buildings
but also in the area such as commercial area, mixed-
use area, industry and residential area.
(Yeh, 2006) argue that green campus has several
categories which related to a physical item such as
buildings, landscape and waste, while the
nonphysical item is the curriculum. Operational,
management and green purchasing related to
investment on campus. Students and staff also
participate in the application of green concepts on
campus.
Based on (Brown, 2006), green building is a way
to reduce energy consumption on the environment.
There are six factors that cause green design on the
buildings important, namely environmental impacts,
materials, waste, energy, water and human health.
Materials consist of construction activities in new
construction, renovation, and destruction of
buildings have an impact on natural resources.
Energy-related to energy consumption for the use of
electrical energy and transportation. Human health
namely the quality of space that affecting the health
of its users such as pollution from furniture, carpets
and so on.
There are six indicators that used in the
assessment of green buildings according to (GBCI,
2016) namely: appropriate site development, energy
efficiency and conservation, water conservation,
material resources and cycle, indoor health and
comfort and building environment management.
From some indicators which considered by
(GBCI, 2016), there are the most important
indicators for green building assessment namely
energy efficiency and conservation. This indicator is
the most important of its assessment because it can
provide benefits on cost reduction for energy supply
in buildings. In addition, the problem of indoor
comfort and health and the use of materials is also
assessed on green buildings. Meanwhile, the
measurement of green areas, the most important
indicator is the movement and connectivity
(movement and connectivity). This is because in a
region of the most important part is the connectivity
of roads, pedestrian, and transportation systems
associated with the movement of its inhabitants.
According to (Yeh, 2006), there are several
categories related to the sustainable university which
become a guidance in compiling Green University
Evaluation Index System (GUEIS), namely: Green
building and landscape planning, ie building based
on green building standards such as LEED and plan
a landscape that provides a more friendly campus
space.
According to (Tamiami, 2018), green design
concepts which applied on the campus can improve
student’s quality of life as users. Based on the result
research on three campuses in Medan City, it is
found that some indicators applied to the building
can provide comfort for its users. These indicators
are good natural lighting in classrooms, suitable
ventilation, unpolluted air, and campus have a lot of
plants. Students argue that buildings that have
applied the green concept can improve their quality
of life. Students feel they have a nice interaction
with their colleagues and lecturers and have an
optimistic feeling in their life.
According to research by (Fachrudin, 2016), that
green campuses should have many plants in its
landscape, free from air pollution, have clean water
and have campus buses. The campus is designed
with the green concept to maintain comfort to its
users so that they will have better quality of life.
