Sweater Days
Think of your sweater as a portable personal heater you don't plug in.
68° is the target thermostat setting in campus buildings. That can seem warm or cold, depending on the time of day, sunshine factor, your level of activity. Layering clothing is the recommended way to keep the thermostat steady, while staying comfortable throughout the day.
Sweater Days is an environmentally friendly, economically viable, socially equitable and healthy energy conservation awareness and action campaign. Everyone is invited to keep university energy consumption and costs lower during the winter months. Use these tools to conserve energy in your office and carbon emissions from campus.
