Have you ever wondered who is responsible for emptying all of the blue recycling bins in the residential areas? Well, the answer is students like you!
In the Fall of 2008 the Housing and Residence Life Green Team was formed. The Green Team is made up of students who have taken on the responsibility of operating the recycling program in the residential facilities. These student workers are managing the daily operations of a growing recycling program as well as assisting in educational programming regarding environmental sustainability. The Green Team has worked to make recycling as easy as possible for residential students through the use of creative and clear signage, keeping containers emptied regularly, and promoting the overall positive effect that recycling can have on our campus community and beyond.
Look for a community-wide program coming your way soon where you'll be able to make/decorate your own recycling container and you'll learn much more from the Green Team about recycling practices!
Until next time...
