SSC approved a $200 micro grant to Eco-Olympics for digital signage in the residential halls. These signs will display progress and energy savings.
"Eco-Olympics is an energy saving competition between the dorms. Residents sign up for teams which then participate in activities led by hall captains to earn points. Energy use also translates into points, and less energy used means more points. At the end of the three week competition, the team with the most points is declared the winner and members of that team receive a prize."
SSC approved a $500 micro grant proposal for Design for America's Social Hack event.

You don't need to have prior knowledge or have a specific major; we are here to share these insights with you! Lunch will be provided."
