Hall Wars: Rowland Hall, West Tower, and Terrace 5 -- Get Ready!

The final round of RHA Hall Wars is here!

Earlier in the year, three residence halls proved their might by reducing energy usage and becoming Hall Wars champions. In late October, Rowland was deemed the victor out of the first-year residence halls. In November, West Tower residents teamed together to defeat the East Tower. In early December, Terrace 5 turned off their lights to win against Terrace 3 and Terrace 4.

The Hall Wars, however, are not yet over. These residence halls now look to prove they can save the most energy to become the Ithaca College champion, and the Residence Hall Association will determine this through the final battle of its environmentally conscious event, Hall Wars.

Rowland, East Tower, and Terrace 5 -- get ready! Turn off your speakers when you don't need them, unplug your printer when not in use, and turn off the light when you leave the bathroom. That's because, from April 13 to April 26, the Residence Hall Association will judge which residence hall has most lowered the use of electricity and reward the residents of that building with a pizza party for their commendable efforts.

As an bonus, if a residence hall can cut energy usage by over 20 percent, they will get a choice for the reward meal: instead of pizza and wings, you may be rewarded with a breakfast meal, Italian or Chinese food, or any meal you prefer!
