Hey Green Cougars!
We are meeting at the IEEE lounge in the Y Building EVERY FRIDAY starting on Friday March 4 at 11am-2pm to help collect, sort, drop off and dispense collecting bins around the Engineering Buildings. Please drop by or call me at 281 978 1493 if you have trouble.
Please spread the word through your organizations and any green enthusiasts to help collect!! We are asking each organization (along with dedicated volunteers) to sign up for a week to collect with their members (Monday-Sunday). We have some great ideas and excitement stirred about Recycle Mania!
Our drop off locations will be laid out tomorrow. The IEEE Lounge will be our headquarter for volunteer sign up dates, sorting, and storing. We have gloves, hand-sani, and materials needed for recycling. All we need is YOUR HELP! :)
By the way, our team is called Engineers United, as we unite all the fellow engineers here at Cullen College of Engineering!
GO GREEN!
