not totally true. Dumpsters that have trash (and the “recycling” dumpsters that are trash) go directly to SWACO when the truck is full.

THe Zero waste thing is unethical because its a lie. the University wants to spend as little as possible on composting/recycling. Most everything goes into landfill. We have a farm on campus. Why not start a compost facility there? OH the startup cost is a bunch? You’d have to change peoples jobs? But what about the environmental/long term benefit? They just give excuses. Other Universities have very successful compost/recycling programs OSU just doesnt want to do it.
