Brandeis installing swath of solar panels

Posted by David Dahl, Regional Editor November 9, 2009 07:50 PM

In a few weeks, the Gosman Center at Brandeis University will be the site of one of the largest solar panel arrays in Massachusetts.

Construction on the solar system is set to begin this week and to last about three weeks, according to Janna Cohen-Rosenthal, the sustainability coordinator at Brandeis.
