The nation's first and only college, specifically dedicated to green careers, is opening in Aurora. The new Ecotech Institute will offer degrees in fields focusing on renewable energy and sustainable design.

School leaders say they've already received phone calls from companies looking to hire graduates, and they haven't even enrolled their first student yet. Tuition and books will be about $400 a credit. Financial aid is available on an individual basis for those who qualify.
