On Tuesday, March 26th, the Office of Sustainability and Office of Information Security hosted their biannual electronic waste recycling and secure paper shredding event on the Danforth campus. Thank you to all who supported sustainability by securely recycling their electronic waste and confidential documents. The event was a huge success. In just two and a half hours, our community recycled 2500 pounds of electronic waste and six totes packed with confidential documents. Throughout the morning, the crew saw 97 cars on Snow Way, including Officer Danielle Hunt and one of WashU’s comfort dogs, Misty!  

If you are interested in future events, please visit the Office of Sustainability website for announcements related to the e-waste recycling and secure paper shredding event on the medical campus next fall. You can also learn about other opportunities to participate in sustainable efforts and events, like the WUSM Earth Day Festival on April 25th!
