The College and University Recycling Coalition (CURC), in partnership with the United States Composting Council and Elevate Packaging, recently administered a survey to colleges and universities to understand how their recycling, compost, and waste programs have been impacted by the sudden campus closures and uncertain reopening plans. This session will present the results of that survey to highlight the challenges facing many institutions and some of their innovative solutions. We will then provide resources and information on how to solve some of the most common challenges.
