The Chancellor’s Energy Challenge is a month-long competition where all UW-L residence halls will compete against each other to reduce there energy consumption. The competition will begin on February 9th and run until March 8th.

Weekly challenge updates and final results will be posted at www.uwlax.edu/sustainability. At the end of the challenge, there will be an award ceremony hosted by Chancellor Joe Gow. A tree will be planted outside the winning residence hall with a plaque indicating the winner of the 2009 Chancellor’s Energy Challenge. Individuals from any residence hall who submit a pledge at the sustainability website will be eligible to win prizes throughout the competition. Winners will be drawn randomly from the pool of submitted pledges.
