We are now beginning the first week of our Campus Conservation Nationals (CCN) residence hall energy and water conservation competition. Ask your Residence Life Staff for ways you can help. Personal conservation commitments and info about SUNYIT residence hall energy and water usage can be seen at SUNYIT's BuildingDashboard page.
This year we are also participating in a "Power of SUNY" competition against your fellow SUNY students at U at Albany, SBU, and New Paltz! Lets show them how much energy we can save!

Your campus needs you! Turn everything OFF Fridays in April.
Fridays in April
Each Friday in April, all members of the SUNYIT campus community will deliberately focus on minimizing our consumption of energy and reducing wasteful behaviors.
- TURN OFF unnecessary lighting and electronics not in use
- UNPLUG chargers and unused devices like printers, speakers, gaming consoles
- Do it in the DARK Fridays in April!

5 Ways to Conserve Energy
1 Turn off the lights whenever room is unoccupied
2 Put computers to sleep or shutdown for periods of inactivity
3 Turn off monitors, printers, speakers, gaming consoles when not in use
4 Unplug mobile phone chargers from the wall
5 Launder only full loads with cold water
