Green Move-In

During the December move-out, ECO Agency and ECO reps collected unwanted appliances from University Village residents. Close to half a ton of appliances were collected! After sorting and cleaning them, items were resold during the January move-in at a very low price to new students. This was a good way to help freshmen and divert waste from landfills!
