Heating on Campus

The heating in most academic/administrative buildings and some residence halls are centrally controlled by facilities. Buildings centrally controlled by facilities will start to be heated based on weather predictions, but, historically, we have turned on the central heating system around mid-October.

Some campus buildings have controls in them that occupants can adjust, much like you would find in your own home. Below is the list of buildings in which occupants can adjust the heat:

Academic/Administrative buildings

  • Dorothy Johansen (DoJo)
  • Eliot Hall (2nd and 3rd floors only)
  • Greywood
  • Health and Counseling Center
  • Prexy
