Earth Week

Each year University Housing joins the entire campus in celebrating Earth Week, an entire week revolving around Earth Day at the end of April.  This week is used to promote sustainability in everything that we do, and programming for the campus and the residence halls shows students how they can make their lives more green.

Earth Week 2014

Earth Week 2014 went off without a hitch.  A special thanks goes out to all those students, staff volunteers, and guests that made this Earth Week great!  Here are a few snapshots from the week.
