A brief description of the program:
Through a 'moving to campus' publication, incoming students are encouraged to reduce residence hall move-in waste by packing in reusable containers(such as Rubbermaid totes) and opening and unpacking small appliances and essential items before bringing them to campus. We also have a large cardboard recycling effort during move-in to capture as much cardboard for recycling as possible.
