LED Lighting System Upgrade



Initiative TitleLED Lighting System Upgrade
Submitted in Previous Year(s)2021
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale

Our current lighting system is thirty years old. Changing the lighting effects as requested by most if not all of our rental customers is time and personnel intensive.  Modern LED architectural lights, the industry standard, can provide enhanced effects.  The new system will be energy efficient and yield 70% savings in electricity.

Consequences of this initiative not being funded

Cost of electricity will remain high.  Potential customers will seek other venues that are able to meet their requirements. Theatrical productions will be sub-standard.

Prioritization Notes

Level 2 (Liberal Arts, AVP Office)

The William Richards Theater is used far beyond just the Arts & Communication Department. Replacing older lighting with contemporary and lower energy using lighting would benefit the entire college in multiple ways: better quality lighting in an important, public-facing space and reduction in cost of energy consumption.
