Winter Session Energy Curtailment

A brief description of the campaign (1st campaign):
Through a collaborative effort with Residence Life and Facilities Management, we educate students on the importance of unplugging and closing their rooms properly before they campus for winter session. Additionally, we help faculty and staff unplug and turn down the heat while they are gone for winter holidays. Students who do remain on campus are consolidated into a 3 dorm complex so the majority of dorms can be entirely powered down.
