A brief description of the electronic waste recycling program for student-generated materials :
We have two collection locations for student-generated electronics on campus. The following electronic items are collected at these sites: print cartridges, cell phones, computer equipment, technotrash (CDs, DVDs, diskettes, film, etc.). There are also other special recycling items collected at these locations as well. If it is inconvenient to take these materials to the designated sites, these items can also be placed next to the nearest recycling site and we will pick them up for recycling as well.
