*You’ve heard the opinions, now get the facts!*

If you read the kernel regularly, you have seen the outspoken opinions of numerous students on campus supporting and opposing the burning of coal on campus. The thing about opinions articles is that they are opinions… not facts. So the Energy Club, an organization devoted to promoting energy awareness to campus, has decided to dig in and get the facts.

*Thursday,   Feb 2nd at 7pm in Student Center Rm 230* Bob Wiseman, the Vice President of Facilities at UK, will be talking about the use of coal in energy production on campus and addressing the FAQ’s on UK’s coal-fired steam  plants.

Topics of discussion include:

   – Emissions

   – Natural Gas and Renewable alternatives and the tuition increase associated with each

   – Permitting

   – Questions asked by YOU
