The Sustainability Stewards are encouraging energy and water reductions within the Tri-Tower residence halls at NC State University. In the past, the Stewards have held this competition between smaller groupings of dormitories (named districts), such as the Tri-Towers or West Campus dorms (Sullivan, Lee, etc.). In spring 2023, the competition spanned across mostly all campus residences. 

This fall, a smaller group will once again participate in the competition. The three contending groups will be: 

• Carroll

• Metcalf

• Bowen

Energy and water data will be collected thanks to the help of DASA Housing Engineers, and normalized / visualized by the Sustainability Stewards to show which dorms have reduced their consumption the most.

 The winning group of the competition will be rewarded with a Custom T-shirt in early November.
