Initiative Title | Student Charging Stations |
---|---|
Submitted in Previous Year(s) | No |
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | This initiative is to convert student common areas into active device charging stations. Students want to charge their devices while they are still available for use and providing electrical outlets at the cafe tables and lounge furniture will provide a mechanism for students to be productive during charging times before, between, and after classes. |
Consequences of this initiative not being funded | Students will continue to search for available electrical outlets to charge their mobile devices. This can cause them to be unproductive and could pose a safety hazard as students stretch device charging cords across ingress and egress areas. |
