If you will be away from the office for the long weekend, help reduce Western Washington University's standing electricity load (also known as power drain or vampire load):

Before you leave, please

• Turn off computers, monitors and printers.
• Unplug chargers and small appliances (but not the refrigerator).
• Leave the thermostat at its normal setting.
• Close the windows and shades.
• Turn off lights and shut windows in unoccupied rooms.
• Remind colleagues and students to "power down" before leaving.

Enjoy the weekend!
