A brief description of the innovative policy, practice, program, or outcome:
During the last two years, LMU has partnered with the Max-R company to develop a pilot project in which LMU purchased recycling stations to collect traditional recyclables, as well as innovative E-cycler units that collect cell phones, CDs/DVDs, batteries, and ink cartridges. These unique recycling receptacles are a true "cradle-to-cradle" product, made from 97% HOPE #2 plastic milk jugs. These units can be recycled at the end of their usable lives, and made back into other plastic products. They are also some of the most aesthetically beautiful recycling stations on the market, making them a good fit for our campus which is known as being one of the most beautiful university campuses in the nation.
