A Website Designed to Display and Store Data for DePauw's Energy Wars

Cameron Cross

For the past four years, Sustainability at DePauw has run a competition between dorms comparing the buildings' environmental footprints based on electricity and water consumption. The goal for this project is to develop a web site to display this data in an interesting and eye-catching way and to provide environmental news and tips. It should provide the competition with an easily accessible view of the data while keeping the website user-friendly to the administrators. Ideally, the main page of the website could be viewed on a monitor for passing students while, if visited, navigation of the website would provide resources and links for tips and facts about the environmental effect DePauw has on the world.
