WHAT WAS THE RECYCLING TASK FORCE?
In the 2007-2008 academic year, Trinity's Student Government Association, the Office of the President of the College, and the Facilities Department partnered to create a student-run Recycling Task Force (RTF). The RTF consisted of six students whose primary tasks were to educate the campus on what items are recyclable at Trinity and how to properly dispose of them, and regularly monitor and inspect recycling and trash bins to ensure that they are being used correctly. The RTF is not currently active due to funding issues.
