Do you leave your computer running in your room while you are at class and while you’re asleep? If so, you’re not alone. But hey, that doesn’t make it right.
A recent study found that we waste a lot of money and energy by leaving our computers on when we aren’t using them. Think about how much you can save on your electric bill by shutting down your computer every night. And those living on campus aren’t exempt; keep your tuition cost in mind next time you think it doesn’t matter if you leave it on or not.
