Help SIU save energy during the extreme heat, holiday weekend

In an effort to help the university improve sustainability, eliminate wasteful use of energy on campus and reduce costs during this heat wave and upcoming Labor Day holiday weekend, the university is asking employees and students to help conserve energy. 

Here are ways to help:

• Please turn off all office lights, and individual workplace lights, when your area is not being used.
• Turn off any unused office or lab equipment including PCs, copiers and printers.
• Properly shut all outside windows and doors.
• Close window blinds.
• Report any heating or cooling systems that are malfunctioning or operating unnecessarily by emailing facilities.siu.edu.
