A brief description of steps the institution has taken to ensure that the purchasing policy, directives, or guidelines are followed :
The recycled content paper policy is part of the Wartburg College Campus Sustainability Plan. As the policy was being written, we consulted with the print shop manager who orders the copier paper to ensure the goal would be attainable and followed. Regularly, the sustainability coordinator checks on the status of conversion. We are still in transition of adoption. The Print Center recently was placed under a new department and was unaware of the commitment to 30% PCW content paper. We are starting the conversion process again.
