Information Technology

Green, or environmentally friendly, information technology can be described as effective power management to reduce unnecessary energy consumption, the eco-friendly disposal of e-waste of technology equipment, and the virtualization of servers to reduce power consumption.

While being green is becoming more second nature to many of us and computing is already a large part of our daily lives, why not take the time to practice a few simple green technology habits? You'll not only save money and energy for the University, you might even feel a little better about yourself. Plus, learn the truth behind popular power management myths and educate yourself on power management statistics.
