Get your spring cleaning started by bringing your old electronic items to College of DuPage on Saturday, April 28th where they will be sent for proper recycling at no cost.  Universal Recycling Technologies is the company we are working with to hold this environmentally-responsible event.  They follows strict standards in order to maintain the coveted “E-Steward” certification.  URT is committed to ensuring that all electronic items are either refurbished, reused, or recycled properly.  At the end of the event, they disburse a check to College of DuPage based on the amount of items that have been collected.  The more items we collect, the more proceeds that will be given to COD student clubs for volunteering at the event!  Visit the COD website at www.cod.edu.  Click on “Local Community Members” and then “Calendar” for more details.  We look forward to seeing you there!
