A brief description of steps taken to ensure that e-waste is recycled responsibly, workers’ basic safety is protected, and environmental standards are met:
Our Recycling Center has an extensive E-Scarp program that takes electronic waste on a daily basis. Much of the campus waste electronics are first sent to Central Stores to be reused or auctioned off for use. If the electronics are not able to be reused they are sent to the Recycling Center to be recycled. Electronic waste from campus is recycled through Recycle Force in Indianapolis. This program handles all materials responsibly and not being shipped oversees. This program provides jobs for recently incarcerated individuals and adds to the social justice goals of our institution.
