Katy Spittell '16 spoke on behalf of the students at Ohio Dominican University during the launch of the school's new solar technologies provided by the partnership of Smart Columbus and DC Solar Freedom. Twenty-four solar energy products, including Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations, light towers, power stations and generators-together valued at more than $3.6 million-were deployed on campus to help improve campus safety and mobility without adding demand on the city's power grid. It is wonderful to see that Katy's passion for environmental issues has continued from her time spent participating in the SFD Environmental Club to her involvement now on the campus of ODU.
