The Green Roof on Howlett Hall is a model of sustainability, keeping over 200,000 gallons of polluted water out of nearby Olentangy River each year. And with an impressive view toward downtown Columbus, it's one of students' favorite campus features. It's also a favorite spot for bees, who are drawn here by the huge variety of blooms. Here's a fun fact: Students study the bees through a live observation hive inside Howlett Hall, which the bees access via a portal tube on the roof.
