Does the institution have a program to reduce residence hall move-in waste?:
Yes

A brief description of the program:

Recycling rolloffs are placed near all residence halls during the two days of Move In. Students are recruited during the summer to volunteer to go into the residence halls and pull out all recyclable materials. New students and parents are notified ahead of time through the move-in information packet and emails about recycling opportunities during Move In.

In 2011, Baylor recycled 12.84 tons during the 24 hours of Move In operations.
