Congratulations on De Anza's award winning! I would like to say thank you to Quan Luong for mentioning De Anza's environmentally conscious program in the article "And the winner is…" on Nov. 3. To win the 2008 Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design award is wonderful for us De Anza students. I'm taking an Environmental Science class in the Kirsch Center that won the award. When the professor taught us the system of the building in my first class, I was amazed at how profitable and considerate of our environment the building is. We don't need to turn on the light nor heater most of the time in class because windows are placed by consideration of a direction of the sun. I think it will be great if other buildings in our campus would be built as the Kirsch Center.
