· Where is the thermostat for the space, and how is it controlled? What role do the occupants of the DCL and surrounding areas play in the thermal conditions of the space?

- In our initial tour of the site, we were unable to locate the thermostat for the space. This was unexpected being that such a specialized space with heavy loads should have its own thermostat. After searching the adjacent spaces, it was found barely visible in the room next door (on the wall, behind a shelf, and piled with miscellaneous items). The temperature was set to 72*F. During the site visit with Doug Gorder, Doug mentioned that the occupants of the DCL or mezzanine space above did not operate the thermostat. Rather, if someone had a serious thermal comfort complaint, they call Facilities Services to solve the problem. However, occupants of Lawrence Hall in general, sometimes alter their immediate environment, which has a ripple effect on the whole HVAC system. For instance in the Architecture office on the second level of Lawrence, the two exposed supply grills have been covered with cardboard and tape. While this empowers the occupants of that office, it aids in causing the thermal discomfort of DCL users.
