Western Colorado University Facilities is currently evaluating a big shift with our current recycling program and we would love for you to be a part of that process. We have requested Waste Management’s Public Sector Solutions Manager for the Four Corners Market Area come and do a presentation on what they have to offer. It will then be followed up with an open questions and answer session. The presentation will be in the North Conference Room at the University Center, 9:30am, Friday, April 21st. Please mark your calendars.

We understand that past programs like this there have been many rumors like “it all just goes to the landfill”.  We are confident that is not the case anymore and would love for you to come and see how it works now, along with getting any questions you may have answered.

Moving to the Single Stream program would also be moving Western towards a much more sustainable future in addition to better aligning us with most all other major universities in Colorado and elsewhere.
