Dorm Wars Start Tomorrow!

Who? Every member of every dorm on campus! Each dorm plays for itself, winning dorm gets the prize (and bragging rights). Don’t worry, energy counts are done per person, so all dorms are on an even playing field.

What? A dorm energy competition to use the least amount of energy possible. Energy use will be counted by % decrease (from the previous week). Tips on how to save energy are posted below. Creative team strategy is encouraged.

When? Monday, November 9th at noon until Saturday, November 14 at noon. That means Friday’s room parties should all happen in the dark…

Where? Energy use in each dorm is counted specifically for that dorm.

Why? Because our campus is going green!

How? Energy meters were installed recently in each dorm, so now we have the technology to do this. Below is the info for accessing the metering website so you can monitor the energy use of each dorm during the battle.

Prize? FREE T-SHIRTS to members of the winning dorm, and, of course, the satisfaction of being champions.
