Did you know: Luther's wind turbine is capable of producing more electricity than we can use on campus when the wind is strong enough. Sunny, breezy days are great times to charge your computer or phone, do laundry, or cook a meal! When you use electricity produced by Luther, Luther doesn't use electricity produced by dirty coal plants. The excess energy produced by the turbine is fed back to the grid and used in Decorah.

RERUNS
Delta Rae and opener, Chris Bathgate, are coming to Luther on Friday, April 1. Their music touches on all aspects of Americana - Gospel, Country, Blue Grass, and Blues. That said the songs are strong pop and have wide appeal -- Seymour Stein, co-founder Sire Records and VP at Warner Bros.
Tickets are on sale now at the Ticket Office. Sponsored by SAC Spotlight.
