The first policy is the regulation of on-campus vehicles.
Kyungwon has decided to divide vehicles into 5 separate groups by the last digit on the license plates, and from there each group will be given a day where they cannot bring their vehicles. The groups are on the following chart. This policy does not apply on Saturdays, Sundays, or holidays. All diplomatic, emergency,
handicapped, and light-weight vehicles are excluded as well.
The second policy is for the outdoor lighting system. The Vision Tower’s lighting, line lightings, and the media walls are all required to be turned off when they are not used. As for the outdoor lighting, everything except for the street lights will be shut off. The lit advertisements at Saerom Hall and the International Language Center must be turned off. However, the tennis court is sometimes used for evening classes, so they will be selectively shut off only when they are not used.
The third policy is for the indoor lighting. All lights are required to be turned off by the managers of each building during lunchtime and when they finish the day. Personal and individual heating systems are prohibited. Also, the Vision Tower’s gym has evening courses so they are permitted to use lights until 11:00 PM.
This information is being advertised through the Kyungwon University website, and KEBS (Kyungwon Educational Broadcasting Station). The University asks the students for their support and cooperation to save energy.
