"GREENING" the Stern Undergraduate College: Saving Power
Beginning this spring semester, and based on recommendations from the
Stern Campus Greening Initiative, all classroom podium PC's will be
powered down from 10:00 p.m. - 7:00 a.m., public PC's will power down after 1 hour of
no activity, and printers will automatically go into power-saving mode
when not in use. (Podiums and PC's may be used at anytime by pressing
the on button, and printers will return to full-power when a job is sent
to them.)
Additionally, the elevators in Tisch Hall will begin to bypass
both the UC level and the 2nd floor during this week. The stairs leading up to the 2nd
floor are easily accessible from the Tisch lobby and taking them will
enable you to not only increase your contribution to Stern and NYU’s
greening efforts, but will also add a quick burst of exercise into your
daily routine. (Please note that students with a documented disability
can visit Kristy McCadden in Tisch 600 to request an elevator key.)
Employment Openings at the Little
Cafe - Spring 2008
Are you hoping to become a part of Stern's much loved student-managed business and have a PAID job that is conveniently located on campus for the spring semester? The 3rd floor Little Café is hiring for Spring 2008. Interested parties should email their resume and a brief explanation of interest to Katie Shea.
