Does the institution have a program to reduce residence hall move-out waste?:
A brief description of the program:
The move-out event is promoted by Residential Housing Assocation.
Tents are set up to collect large items, such as furniture, that is either swapped or taken to Goodwill.
There are bins in the lobby of each hall to collect clothes, food and small appliances to be donated to local Goodwill. A volunteer faculty member goes through clothes and puts outfits together for local middle and high school kids.
In 2011, we will collect non-perishable food to be donated to a student food pantry on campus.
Bins for recycling are available.
