For the following term when passing the TV, Soleil would unplug the TV to conserve energy. It is theorized that programmers of the TV thought the repeated unplugging was due to a loose outlet and installed an additional outlet adapter in order to keep it in place. This did not deter Soleil, however, which eventually resulted in the programmers' suspecting that a student was responsible. Eventually footage captured from the Founders Lab camera revealed that Soleil was often at the scene during the unplugging. |

Salemi, upon viewing the footage, had a subordinate to get in contact with Soleil, threatening to have Soleil talk with the Dean of Students should her actions continue. According to first-hand accounts, Salemi demanded that she stop due to the unplugging messing with the rest of the computer system--arguably the fault of the college, as that's just bad programming. Soleil agreed on the grounds that the college try to be more conscious of their impact on the environment, and in mild fear of being punished. Unfortunately, despite her drawing attention to the hypocrisy of Knox College's ideals regarding the environment, the Union Board TV still stands and unfortunately has started to produce inhumane screeching some would call "The Last Jedi". |
