I was wondering if anyone has any information about energy use in student housing on campuses? I am specifically wondering about BTU's/student in older facilities.

Wow, I forgot I wrote that request, Julius. Thanks for the information.

The Energy Star database sometimes has that kind of information, though I don't see it for any of their student housing facilities. Maybe you can try contacting one of the energy managers listed in the profiles there: http://www.energystar.gov/index.cfm?fuseaction=labeled_buildings.showRes...
You can also get a very rough idea by using the benchmarking tool on www.CheckYourBuildingsPulse.com, though your result will be in kWh, not BTUs.
