In recent projects, Brown and oth ers tried to increase efficiency of gas and steam use because the University didn't know how much it used cam pus-wide. To help manage the prob lem, Brown helped create an internal Web site to plot daily usage at the University. Although one would as sume colder temperatures would cause a spike in usage during the win ter months, the Web site revealed that If you want a good job when you graduate, you need a great job now.

Considering the majority of steam went to heating pools and domestic water, which is under-used, Brown said, solar collection seemed like to best solution during clear, summer time weather. After the installation of solar pan els in mid-July, Hecht said the Univer sity has made plans to start putting them up all over campus. Through other projects, Brown helped to improve energy efficiency for buildings such as the Lillis Com plex, PLC and the School of Music. For these projects, Brown gets a lot of use out of an artificial sky lab located in Pacific Hall. Designed by one of his graduate students and paid for by the Eugene Water & Electric Board, the large mirrored box reproduces over cast light conditions for various build ing models. Graduate student Chris Chatto has worked with "Charlie" on several day lighting studies and real-world proj ects. Chatto is one of a handful of par ticipants in this year's graduate research fellowship, a program that employs fellows to collaborate on sus tainable projects. He said his first im pression of Brown was an inspiring one. "He's obviously a smart guy and he is very hardworking and methodical," he said. Born in Mobile, Ala., Brown re ceived a bachelor's degree from Michigan State University in industri al design in 1964, a master's degree from Michigan State in industrial and graphic design in 1966, a Master of Business Administration degree mar keting from the University of Akron in 1971 and a master's degree in archi tecture from Yale University in 1974. Brown said his motivation for teaching architecture was based on "straight economics." While continu ing his education at the graduate level, Brown started to teach at the Universi ty in 1 977 to save tuition money and get paid for what he likes to do. "I've never seen another job I liked more," he said. "It's a perfect fit for me." As a professor, Brown has taught numerous subjects, including com puter-aided design and advanced courses in sight and building energy simulation. Although he fell in love with archi tecture before sustainability, Brown said both come into play when he works on campus. And while some professors at the University may teach primarily to inspire students, Brown said he also teaches to leam. With aspirations to teach sustain able architecture one day, Chatto said he looks up to Brown as both an edu cator and a friend. "He has really helped to make the University a leading school for a more ecological approach to architecture by attracting new faculty and making a name for the school," he said. "He's a big influence in my goal to teach." Contact the business/science/ technology reporter at caronalarab@dailyemerald.com. SENATE continued from page 1 group's request as well. The senate also postponed a re quest from campus radio station KWVA for two new computers, pend ing a decision on the station's minor equipment request. KWVA is moving to a touch-screen computer system and needs equip ment to support it, said KWVA Gener al Manager Charlotte Nisser. "Part of our struggle is keeping up with technology," Nisser said. "It would be nice to have tlje computers in place just to make life easier." Senate Ombudsman Mike Sher man said the request was unusual. "Last year, we didn't have any equipment requests from surplus," he said. "We're kind of moving into new territory here." Senator Kevin Day said that tickets for the Dec. 17 men's basketball game against Santa Clara University will be distributed Dec. 1 and that only about 305 student tickets will be available.
