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

A brief description of the program:

Stanford students recently opened a new campus thrift store called “The Clothes Loop.” Students (and all members of the Stanford community) can drop off unwanted items and take any desired items for free or at a very low price. During student move-in, this inventory is placed outside for a “Sustainable Yard Sale” to encourage students to reuse items instead of buying all new supplies to outfit their dorm rooms each fall.
