Amy Duin, chairwoman of the SEC recycling committee, said she believes the conference will be extremely beneficial to ISU students. Katie Theisen, treasurer of SEC, said she hopes both students and faculty will get involved in the conference. This conference can help that. The work that ISU is doing for the environment affects more than just the university community, Theisen said. Theisen also said she believes other universities can learn from some of ISU's environmental initiatives, such as residence hall recycling and the recently implemented newspaper recycling bins.
Every university involved in the conference has some kind of recycling program.
Gloria Erickson, member of the SEC recycling committee, said currently there are 49 seats available for the conference. Copyright 1999 by the Iowa State Daily Publications Board. All rights reserved. No redistribution without the express written consent of the Iowa State Daily Editor in Chief.
