http://www.statenews.com The first year of efforts to reduce energy usage by consolidating classrooms led to some green savings for MSU. During the 2008-09 year, seven buildings that previously held classes and events in the evening saw the classes moved to more utilized buildings nearby to save energy, said Jennifer Sowa, a project coordinator in the Office of the Vice President for Finance and Operations. en-us Gryphon 2.2.3b-tsn (woodward)/Foundry5 Sat, 11 Jul 2009 17:59:13 -0400 webmaster@statenews.com http://www.statenews.com/index.php/comment/view/41811 Great, more propaganda. When it was cold just weeks ago, the language in the press was climate change. When we reach the middle of summer and heat waves start, they use the language global warming again. The language will revert back to climate change when it starts to get nippy in the fall. Embracing the new Religion of Earth: Environmentalism, is fine and dandy if you don’t care about such things as liberties and freedoms. If you’re so sure global warming is going to happen, then go ahead and invest in Canadian real estate. What, too risky? Then why take the risk to shut down our coal power plants with Cap and Tax? Idiots.

Now that’s a thought that STUDENTS would love to read about, don’t you think?

I don’t care whether you believe in climate change or global warming but you have to look at this as a good thing. No your tuition won’t go down if the University saves $17,000 but if the program continues to expand then maybe your next tuition bill won’t go up as much as it could have. Quit complaining about a good thing.

I could give a rat’s ass about climate change if I don’t have enough money to survive. Some priorities are just more important.

You somehow believe that humans can take natural substances from the earth, utilize them naturally because everything humans do is natural, and somehow unnaturally warm up the whole earth catastrophically beyond what it would have.

Does this allow for tuition cuts?
