Students Design Energy Conservation Stickers for Campus
Students in the Environmental Justice Learning Community worked with Krista James (Biology), Joan Menefee (English & Philosophy), and Sarah Rykal (Sustainability Office) to develop new "We turn LIGHTS OFF here" stickers to be placed on light switches, encouraging everyone to conserve energy by turning off lights after exiting rooms on campus. The students researched light switch plates all over campus, then designed a sticker to fit the majority of plates. With funds to do a service learning project, the students ordered 1,500 stickers and posted them around campus on December 15th.
