Big Brother is watching you.”

“Always the eyes watching you and the voice enveloping you. Asleep or awake, working or eating, indoors or out of doors, in the bath or in bed—no escape. Nothing was your own except the few cubic centimeters in your skull.”

“At any rate, they could plug in your wire whenever they wanted to. You had to live—did live, from habit that became instinct—in the assumption that every sound you made was overheard, and, except in darkness, every movement scrutinized.”

“It was terribly dangerous to let your thoughts wander when you were in any public place or within range of a telescreen. The smallest thing could give you away.”

“Fire at Full Moon” 1933 | Paul Klee

Hard upon conclusion of the fall semester, educational settlements ebb in population as students return to their home fires.

Today we pull together best practice in the systems — the people and the technologies — that sustain campus safety and stability during the Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year holidays.

Standards Indiana § Greenwood

“Center Grove Schools enters the 2022/2023 school year with a new high-tech safety partner — Centegix CrisisAlert — purchased in part with school safety grant money that pairs with their Emergency Operations Center that opened in January 2022.  The CrisisAlert program  puts security at the fingertips of all teachers and staff.

Both systems address what the district learned it had to work on from a school safety assessment back in 2018 – live monitoring and faster response times in an emergency.   Seven-hundred cameras will scan every school in real-time from the district’s Emergency Operations Center. — More”

The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has reviewed the 2018 edition of the International Energy Conservation Code and determined the updated edition would improve energy efficiency in buildings subject to the code compared to the 2015 edition.  First. free access to the 2018 edition is linked below:

2018 International Energy Conservation Code (IECC)

Final Determination Regarding Energy Efficiency Improvements in the 2018 International Energy Conservation Code

DOE analysis indicates that buildings meeting the 2018 IECC (as compared with buildings meeting the 2015 IECC) would result in national site energy savings of 1.68 percent, national source energy savings of 1.91 percent, and national energy cost savings of approximately 1.97 percent of residential building energy consumption.  Many colleges and universities have real assets that are classified as residential.

Detailed analysis is linked below:

Energy Savings Analysis: ANSI/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.1-2019 (64 pages)

Upon publication of this affirmative determination, each State is required by statute to certify that it has reviewed the provisions of its residential building code regarding energy efficiency, and made a determination as to whether to update its code to meet or exceed the 2018 IECC. Additionally, this notice provides guidance on state code review processes and associated certifications.

Public consultation closes December 10, 2021

We maintain this topic on our periodic Energy and E Pluribus Unum (State) colloquia.   See our CALENDAR for the next online meeting; open to everyone.
