GC is on High Alert status as higher temperatures result in peak electricity demand that significantly impacts pricing ($.60+ per kilowatt hour above the normal operating price of $.06).  Georgia Power advises this status will remain in effect this week with persistent high alerts anticipated through the remainder of the summer months.   

The campus community is urged shut down all nonessential lighting during the peak hours of 1 p.m. to 8 p.m.  At your discretion, consider unplugging any equipment you deem as nonessential.

If you have access to windows, use the natural light. When not using natural light, close window blinds. Turn lights off when you leave your office. Keep temperatures to 75 degrees F.   All of these measures will help tremendously.

The Office of Sustainability and the Department of Facilities Management would like to thank everyone ...

Please let this serve as a reminder that GCSU will observe the June 19th holiday (Juneteenth) on Monday, June 20th.

During this year's session, the General Assembly passed House Bill 1335, such that upon the Governor's signature, state law would now require 13 paid holidays per year to include Juneteenth.  State agencies that already provide for 12 official paid holidays will be required to update their compliance to 13 official paid holidays. The current and future Holiday Calendars for Georgia College & State University have been updated to reflect the recent decisions made by the Board of Regents to add this additional paid holiday. 

The current 2022 calendar is attached below and can also be found at the following link:  https://www.gcsu.edu/humanresources/holiday...
