Compost Friends
A brief description of the student educators program (2nd program):
Compost Friends are trained student greeters who take shifts in the clearing stations in the main dining halls. They offer guidance about what goes where, the compost process at Williams, and why it's beneficial to compost. We've gotten feedback that many students don't take the time to look at the sign and dispose of things properly. By having student leaders standing in the dish return area, it adds a bit of positive pressure to ask them to slow down and learn how to do it correctly.
A brief description of the student educators program’s target audience (2nd program):
Primarily educating first-years, but the program also helps remind returning students.
