This night’s event will be made up of Penn State Net Impact Volunteers: Every Friday night, 20 to 30 student volunteers gather at the HUB-Robeson Center on the University Park campus. They are assigned to targeted buildings, where they turn out lights that were left on in public areas such as classrooms, study rooms and lounges. The student teams turn off approximately 1,500 to 2,500 light bulbs each week. The ultimate goal of the project is to educate students about the importance of energy conservation through the simple action of turning off unneeded lights.
