Alexis Goldman of Carrboro, a senior at Guilford College, developed a program called EcoRoom to consult with students on how to decrease energy consumption in their dorm rooms, and will attend the Clinton Global Initiative University in Washington, D.C., at the end of the month.
Goldman is an environmental studies major and a committed sustainability advocate. She came up with the idea while she was an intern for Guilford College Energy Team, designed to educate students about environmentally responsible decisions.
