Page 10--The Michigan Daily-New Student Edition-University-Thursday, September 9, 1993 Every year, University students, faculty and staff generate about 8,000 tons of solid waste- enough to fill the Burton Memorial Tower 12 times. Reduce the waste- 0 Rescue The Recyclables! -0,,. Trash. Refuse. Rubbish. Garbage. Junk. Whatever you call it, it's all a waste. Of energy, of natural resources, of landfill space and of your tuition dollars. For this reason, the University has instituted a recycling program to recover materials rather than bury them forever. Students at the University have an opportunity to recycle many materials all year long. It's simple. It's convenient. During Move-In, you can recycle corru- gated cardboard by emptying boxes, flattening them and bringing them to the loading dock of your residence hall. Throughout the year, you can recycle cardboard pizza boxes, news- papers and mixed office paper right in your hall. Plastic laundry detergent jugs can be recycled in the laundry rooms. Computer paper in the com- puter room. It's that easy. It's that convenient. In the lobby of your residence hall, you can recycle glass jars and bottles, metal cans, plastic jugs and household batteries. Recycling doesn't end with your final exams either. During Move- Out week, you can donate old clothing, unwanted food and toiletries, leftover loft wood and old carpets to local charities. And recycling doesn't end when you leave Michigan, because many com- munities nationwide have recycling programs. Perhaps you have just moved here from one. The University has made recycling a habit. Why not make it yours? For more information, contact the University Recycling Office at 763- 5539. For off-campus information, call 971-7400. TI I {, . i J - _...- . , " ' ....
