Does the institution have an occupied, formally designated model room in a residence hall that is open to students during regular hours and demonstrates sustainable living principles?:
Yes
None
A brief description of the model room:
The model dorm room is occupied by two "Appalachian Ambassadors," student leaders who serve as tour leaders for Admissions. The Appalachian Ambassadors show the model dorm room during open house events and on tours for incoming and perspective students.
Included in the App Ambassador's talking points are the ways in which the room residents implement sustainability and Appalachian State's commitment to sustainability.
The model dorm room has compact fluorescent bulbs, high output overhead fluorescent light fixtures, a power strip for electronics, salvaged items from the end-of-year collection sale, and in-room recycling bins. On the back of the door is a sustainability checklist including turning the lights and electronics off, plus any phantom loads when leaving the building.
