A brief description of the program:
Since 1996, MSU students and staff have been packing up and pitching in during move-out to turn their unwanted items into a valuable material.The program is made possible through partnerships with RHS, MSU Recycling and Surplus, City of East Lansing and local area charitable
agencies. Through recycling and donating unwanted items to charities MSU and the City of East Lansing are able to divert materials from the land fill and assist in meeting or exceeding our Be Spartan Green goal decreasing waste by 30% by 2015. Additionally, this program serves as a
shining example of MSU’s commitment to sustainability, charitable support, community wide environmental stewardship, and community support and collaboration between MSU, City of East Lansing and local charities.
