goal of zero waste. In order to create Steven G. Mihaylo Hall into the most recyclable building on campus, we start with creating signature (posters, signs, flyers). Since the materials used to create signature can be easily found in the Facilities Planning and Management Service Center, we do not need to purchase any materials or resources. As a result, no budget is needed in this part. Second, recycling station will be set up by the beginning of Fall Semester 2015. From Recycle Away, LLC website
