Does the institution use motion, infrared, and/or light sensors to reduce energy use for lighting in at least one building?:
Yes

A brief description of the technology used:

All offices in the newly-renovated Welcome Center have motion censors. The T-8 light fixtures near the exterior walls have built in light sensors which sense the amount of daylight coming in and can shut down to perhaps only 10% use of electricity than what they would use if completely on and still maintain a constant level of light because of the daylight. In addition, there are motion sensors in two of our other campus buildings: Imholte and Science.
