How green is Suffolk?

See what measures Suffolk takes to make the campus more environmentally friendly…

  • Techno Trash – Special recycling bins that can be found in the Sawyer lounge as well as the computer labs in Sawyer and Donahue. You can dispose of tapes, DVDs, VHS tapes, CDs, and transparencies.
  • 150 Tremont, 10 West, and Miller Hall all now have “single stream” recycling. This is one bin in which students can place all recyclables without needing to sort them prior. This is to make recycling easier and more convenient.
  • Suffolk’s annual waste reduction competition normally takes place only in the fall, but this year will also be held during the Spring.
  • Organics recycling in the Donahue cafeteria – Allows diners to compost food instead of throwing it in with the trash. The composted food, along with the newly biodegradable cutlery, straws, and containers in the cafeterias, will go to a farm in Massachusetts to be sold as compost.
  • In & Toner Cartridges – If you are a staff member, live in the residence halls, or attend Suffolk you can now bring empty cartridges to the mail room where an outside company will take them free of charge.
