Green Tip

To save energy costs, the University is closed for a one-week period over winter break. Before you leave campus: unplug all non-essential equipment and appliances which can still draw electricity even if turned off; shut down your computer unless instructed otherwise by IT; check windows to make sure they are fully closed and faucets for leaking water; and, if you work in a lab, ensure lab fume hoods are closed. These tips also apply at home if you’re traveling. Read more about the Winter Holiday Energy Saving Initiative.
