A brief description of steps taken to ensure that e-waste is recycled responsibly, workers’ basic safety is protected, and environmental standards are met:
Facilities operations maintains an organized e-waste storage facility. Items from campus are transported to the facility and stored until the volume permits disposal (a minimum of once each semester).
A brief description of the electronic waste recycling program for institution-generated materials:
The Information Technology department is the largest contributor of institution-generated e-waste. They have an e-waste collection point in their building that is moved to facilities and sorted as needed. All other e-waste is picked up on an as needed basis.
A brief description of the electronic waste recycling program for student-generated materials :
As the volume of e-waste significantly chances throughout the year (most during move-out), it is picked up on an as needed basis from residential recycling rooms. Items disposed of improperly are removed from student trash at our on-campus recycling facility.
