Earlier this semester we successfully submitted a proposal to Purdue administration to have electricity meters installed this summer in four campus dorms (McCutcheon, Harrison, Earhart and Shreve). Next fall, we will plan an energy-saving competition between these paired dorms, with a prize for the winning dorms. We hope that this will encourage Purdue to meter all buildings on campus soon. This is a great example of how effective student groups can be in intiating change on campus!
