On October 31, ACES partnered with the ECOWATCH Organization for a hands-on Waste Analysis and Characterization Study (WACS). This essential activity provided critical, data-driven insights into the specific composition of our campus waste stream.

Understanding what we discard is the first vital step toward creating smarter, more effective waste reduction and segregation programs right here in our academic community. This data is key to moving beyond general solutions and implementing targeted strategies for a greener campus.

We remain committed to empowering actionable change through knowledge and partnership.
