eSuds is the name of our web-based monitoring system, first piloted nationally at Carnegie Mellon in Spring 2004. With eSuds, all the laundry rooms with a "Y" below can be viewed virtually on a website so students can look for open machines and can also monitor the progress of washer and dryer cycles in progress. The system will even send an email or text message to a cell phone when a cycle is complete if the user registers on the eSuds.net website. This is just one more effort to make living on campus ever more convenient for our residents.
