Composting and Recycling on Campus

Welcome back Golden Knights! A few reminders from the Institute for a Sustainable Environment:

  • Food waste stations are available in RoBro and at the Servery. Please remember to scrape your plates. All food scraps and brown napkins can go into these green buckets. Waste is brought to a local farm to be turned into compost! No plastic please. See the signage and stickers on/near the buckets for more information. You can also learn more here: https://linktr.ee/foodwastep2i
  • Recycling Reminders: Pepsi cups are unfortunately not recyclable. Drink and food containers, like yogurt cups, must be rinsed out before being recycled. No food residue please. Learn more here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dRXgsUrF5aOZ0IgIOrX9pydewZC-bG_H/view 
  • DO NOT BAG your recycling. Flimsy plastic and plastic bags cannot be recycled on campus. Please empty your recycling bin loose into the dumpsters.
