"Environmentally Responsible College"

"St. Mary's College was recently ranked by the Princeton Review as one of the 322 most environmentally responsible colleges in the U.S. and Canada. This recognition was awarded to the College for its use of renewable energy sources, recycling and conservation practices, and environmental course offerings."

Paper

I am sitting in Psyc 333: Adolescence. I just got handed a sheet of paper, and it is really thin. Like I have never experienced paper of such a low quality.

But I think this is pretty awesome because it is probably cheaper, and less tree material is used per sheet of paper. I realize that the term "tree material" sounds stupid, but I couldn't think of a better word.

In conclusion, SMCM continues to introduce more Green Initiatives I guess?

Green Bathrooms

Joanne Goldwater sent out an email this morning about the changes to the bathrooms. I'm assuming it was an all student email, but she always does "undisclosed recipients" so it's hard to tell.

I really like the new paper towel dispensers, because in the past you could easily grab 10-50 paper towels at a time, which was a huge waste. On the other hand, it makes it hard to grab 10-50 paper towels at a time when you spill something or have some other mess to clean up.

I don't like the new toilet paper dispensers though, they are kinda lame. I find it a lot harder to rip the paper from the roll or something. I just can't deal with them I guess.

But I mean overall it's pretty rad that SMCM its taking more green intiatives.
