ITHACA N.Y.--Using less electricity in dormitories will mean more money this sspring for students at Cornell University under a new conservations program called "Kill-A-Watt." The university will reimburse individual dormitories with cash if students use less electricity in March and April than they did at the same time last year. The Cornell Daily Sun reported this week.
The reimbursement, 75 percent of the savings realized by decreased consumption, are intended as incentives for conservation, a university official said. The money will go to dormitory program funds, which are used for parties, dances, study breaks and other events.
