They will present a list of suggestions for an energy saving program to the Administration, which will then decide on implementation of the program. A number of recommendations have already been suggested. Included is a proposed incentive program for faculty and staff members. A monetary award would be given each month to that person who submits the best overall conservation idea. A larger award would then be presented to the best of the first group of winners. "An incentive program would urge . our people to think of ways to be saving," said Dr. Carr, "and this would automatically promote energy con sciousness across the campus." Working alongside the faculty committee is a student committee devoted to finding ways fop the' student body to do its part in energy con servation.
