A Bin-tastic Event
America Recycles Day, to promote the proper use of the College's new recycling bins
A Bin-tastic Event
Members of KCC's AtD Student Success Committee, KCC's Environment Health and Safety department and Phi Theta Kappa teamed up on November 15, America Recycles Day, to promote the proper use of the College's new recycling bins. Located throughout the cafeteria, the new bins include a slot for organic materials that can be composted. With guidance from graphic design professor Jonathan Macagba, communications major Shunny Parikh designed postcards and posters illustrating how to use the bins. Both are members of the AtD committee. The posters were mounted on easels by the bins. Students earned free snacks — and gained new knowledge — by playing garbage-sorting games and referencing the postcards. The College's recycling efforts also include the campus-wide installation of new water bottle refilling stations. For information on the bins and a PDF of refilling locations, visit online.
