A brief description of the technology used:

Temperature settings are centrally controlled by Facility Services. In 2009, we instituted a new energy-saving HVAC policy as well. During the academic year, academic buildings and public spaces like the Warch Campus Center will be maintained at a target temperature of 68 degrees (+/-2 degrees). In the summertime, academic buildings will be maintained at a target temperature of 76 degrees (+/-2 degrees).
