Shred Day

Our next Shred Day will be November, 2019.

The 2018 Shred Day was the warmest one thus far.  On a partly sunny November 1, with temperatures in the mid-upper 70s, the BSU community took the opportunity again to dispose of old files, records and other paper items from offices across the campus along with personal items.  Once again, the 11-12,000 lb capacity truck was near capacity with about 8-9,000lbs of paper or the equivalent of 4-4.5 tons!  A special thank you is given to Facilities Management and Asset Management for their hard work in making sure boxes were picked up, brought to the truck, emptied and boxes broken down.  The cardboard boxes were also recycled by our campus vendor, ABM.
