SU plan would
standardize recycling

At the most recent SU Senate meeting, senators heard a proposal for a policy which would standardize recycling and reduce waste across campus. The Sesquicentennial Environmental Initiative suggests that a challenge be issued to students, faculty, and staff members to urge compliance with the future policy. The second plank of the proposal would attempt to decrease the amount of contamination in recycle bins by supporting the current effort to place lists of recyclable materials above each bin to educate students about what should and should not be placed in each bin. The final portion of the initiative aims to reduce paper waste by increasing the use of double-sided printing and recycled paper by providing financial incentives to do so. Professors would also be encouraged to allow or endorse assignments with double-sided printing.
