George Mason University Case Study
Education – Upgrade George Mason University Fairfax, VA In addition to offering more uniform, targeted illumination, Cree’s LED lighting solution provides George Mason University with a highly-efficient exterior lighting system that works toward its long-term sustainability goals. • Anticipated annual energy cost savings of over $92,000 • Estimated annual maintenance cost savings of more than $42,000 • Over 1,951 megawatt-hours annual electrical energy savings CREE IDENTIFIED AS BEST RETROFIT SOLUTION OPPORTUNITY George Mason University is rapidly evolving from its roots as a Northern Virginia regional college into a nationally recognized leader, now globally ranked among the top 200 world universities. The university’s development has been marked by rapid growth and innovative planning that includes the revolutionary concept of the “distributed” university with multiple campuses. In 2007, George Mason University’s President Alan Merten signed the American College and University Presidents Climate Commitment (ACUPCC). Since then, the University developed and began implementing an organizational and decision-making structure for sustainability: the Executive Steering Committee for Sustainability, the Sustainability Council and Sustainability Working Groups. Each of these groups has a dierent purpose and goals, but together ensure the vertical and horizontal integration of sustainability activities with the entire campus community. In addition to the ACUPCC, George Mason University actively pursues creative methods to reduce energy use, requiring all agencies of the Commonwealth to monitor, report and reduce energy costs and consumption for all state-owned facilities through a comprehensive energy plan. SOLUTION In 2009, surveys were conducted to evaluate potential facility improvements across the three George Mason University campuses. -

Andrew Sledd Revisited Terry L. Matthews, Phd / Mount Airy, North Carolina
Journal of Southern Religion, Volume 6 (December 2003) The Voice of a Prophet: Andrew Sledd Revisited Terry L. Matthews, PhD / Mount Airy, North Carolina In 1902, Andrew Sledd, a professor of Latin at Emory College published “a strong denunciation of lynching in the Atlantic Monthly.” The furor that followed the article’s appearance led the president of Emory, James Dickey, “to ask for Sledd’s resignation.” For the next 100 years, Emory University sought to gloss over or ignore this stain on its institutional soul.1 Not until April 2002, at a special symposium held to commemorate the controversy, did the University act to “right a wrong committed a century ago by revisiting the ‘Sledd affair’ and reflecting on its meaning for Emory today.”2 Indeed, Andrew Sledd’s life and work had meaning far “A man with the beyond the borders of the Emory campus.

Although was prepared to pay hardly perfect, Sledd was one of those rare persons who a high price for his possessed the character and courage to labor heroically dissent as he for a new South, even though he was only able to see and greet it from afar. A self styled “Apostle of the New embarked on a life South,” Sledd spoke out forcefully against the “infidelity long struggle against of the orthodox” proclaiming a gospel of “righteousness the ‘blind adherents’ and social service” that would inspire his students at Emory College and the Candler School of Theology to of racism, anti- 3 intellectualism, and become agents of change across the region. -
