Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Most building weren’t built for a university setting- the Cedar and Mews buildings were originally stables. Numerous renovations and energy efficient upgrades have been made over time to increase efficiencies.
The campus is in a coastal location with a temperate climate, i.e., offshore breezes help to moderate building temperatures. Windows and portable fans are used to circulate the air in the summer and portable space heaters in the winter.
