A reminder from Facilities: As sunny, warm weather approaches, you can help keep your work space comfortable and avoid wasted energy costs (up to 33%) by adjusting your window coverings when the sun is shining.

• For west and north facing windows, close window coverings before you leave for the day.  This will block the sun's heat in the early morning. You can open them when the sun is not shining in if your office temperature is comfortable.
• For east and south facing windows, close the blinds around noon. You can open them when you leave at night

In warm weather, once a space is overheated it can be difficult for our cooling systems to cool them in the afternoon. Adjusting your windows in alignment with the weather will help everyone. As always, you can send a request to workcontrol@spu.edu or call 206-281-2330 for building comfort issues.

A message from Student Counseling, Health, and Wellness: This summer we are opening our services to graduate students for relational counseling (joint counseling with another person/涩里番 for couples, families, friends, etc.).

Due to state licensing laws, all parties in the relationship must be in Washington state to receive counseling services. Students can call 206-281-2657, email scc@spu.edu, stop by Watson Hall, or fill out a request form on the .

The Faculty/Staff Bulletin is on a summer schedule and will be published every other Monday beginning June 9. The next deadline is Thursday, June 19, and the next issue will be published Monday, June 23. The Bulletin will resume weekly publication after Labor Day.
