Visioning Party for Sustainability

On Feb. 4 the EWCPA Sustainability group hosted a Visioning Party, where participants gathered to brainstorm ideas to increase the long-term sustainability of the EWC.  Over fifteen students attended, and came up with ideas for improved communication, policy changes, student-led activities and outreach projects.  With some guidance questions to start the  conversation, it was a very informal gathering.  Participants munched on salad and pizza while they discussed their ideas.  Some of the proposed ideas included: decreasing the need for paper towels in the dormitory kitchens, an alternative to using dryers which would use the sun, and a way to recycle plastic bags from the grocery store.  These suggestions will be presented to the EWC as student ideas for the future.
