Energy Costs Reach Sky-High Levels Heating prices, and the university’s heating bills, reached record-high levels this year. In an effort to reduce heating costs, the university plans to lower the temperature in all classroom buildings on weekends and on weekdays after five P.M., when the day’s classes have officially ended. Because classes will not be in session at these times, the reduced heat should have no negative impact on students and their studies. The university considers it essential that the cost-saving measures not interfere with student activities. Narrator: Now listen to two students discussing the article. Narrator: The woman expresses her opinion about the plan described in the article. State her opinion and explain the reasons she gives for holding that opinion.
