ASCJ Facilities and Operations

Level of Certification: Platinum

Office Description:
 
The Annenberg Facilities Operations Office oversees the 
facilities operations of the Annenberg School for Communication and 
Journalism.  We work closely with the University's Facilities Management 
Services in order to remedy issues with HVAC, Locks, Paint, and Custodial 
services.  Our department also coordinates technology support to faculty, 
staff and students by working with our computer and audiovisual technicians 
for both office and classroom issues.
 
Challenges and Successes:
 
Some of the challenges we faced revolved around 
getting people on board with going green.  Some felt it would be too 
expensive and time consuming.  It was a delight to discover that green 
products were only slightly more expensive and that they were readily 
accessible.  We have been very successful with attaining Platinum status due 
to the willingness of the University to assist us.
