This article examines this issue and creates a quantifiable measure for the social consideration of sustainability that accounts for the relationship between people and place. This relationship is characterized by an environment’s functionality. What makes an environment functional is also examined in this article. The measurement system created can be used in two different ways. It can be used to benchmark an environment and track it over time, or it can be used to compare one environment to another. This system ultimately creates a representation of an environment’s functionality. Understanding the functionality of anenvironment is the first step toward creating environments that work better for their users. The measurement system described assesses the ability of an environment’s users’ to participate in the broad range of interconnected activities hosted by the environment. Collegiate campuses were selected as the setting to employ this assessment tool because of the negative
