Fall 2011 Res Hall Plug-In Device Inventory

This fall, one of the projects of the Eco-Reps Program was to visit different residence hall rooms around campus and to count the number of plug-in electrical devices. Below are the results. Note that rooms range from single occupancy to multi-room suites. Next year we'll remember to count the number, gender, and major of the rooms' residents.

Building	Spinner	North House	Hill Hall	Schillhammer	Quarry
Room 1	10	8	25	6	24
Room 2	7	29	12	14	27
Room 3	9	10	21	6	12
Room 4	9	8	13	5	18
Room 5	8	11	21	10	18
Room 6	5	10	12	8	23
Room 7	9	9	12
Room 8	7	19	18
Room 9	6	11	9
Room 10	8	14	14
Average	7.8	12.9	15.7	8.2	20.3
