The Center for Sustainability is using Hawk Week to get an early start on promoting eco-friendly habits throughout campus, which includes a sustainability pledge.
“It’s asking students to commit to some specific behaviors and then also along with that we’ll also provide incentives for them to do that,” Jeff Severin, director of the center, said. “It really focuses on reducing waste.”
The pledge kicked off at Unionfest Sunday when the center handed out steel water bottles and will continue tonight at the ice cream social at the Adams Alumni Center with free, reusable shopping bags. The center will wrap up its efforts to promote the R’s — reduce, reuse, recycle — Thursday, when it will pass out cloth napkins at the back-to-school barbecue at Mrs. E’s and more steel water bottles during Rock the Rec."
