Savings Strategies
"What Can I Do?"
Individual members of the campus community can help reduce costs and save resources by paying attention to a few simple reminders:
- Think before you print
- Duplex printing on copiers and desktop printers
- Receive your printed pay statement electronically through ePay
- Turn off the lights when leaving buildings/offices
- Turn off computer monitors each night
- Take the stairs instead of the elevator
- Recycle - it lowers our costs
- Use the University's state sales tax exemptions when applicable
- Consider using Surplus items prior to purchasing new items
- Develop departmental guidelines for the allocation and use of mobile devices
- Consider using the University's videoconferencing facilities as an alternative to travel
- Encourage brown bag instead of lunch meetings
