A brief description of the composting or mulching program:
The University has a long standing practice of mulching its grass and leaves. First, these items are separated from other ground debris such as branches, deadwood and road sweepings. The grass and leaves are combined and composted on site, with occasional turning. After a year of curing, the resulting compost is removed and used on campus grounds.
