Achieving our sustainability goals requires action, and while we develop a guiding plan for how to achieve the campus sustainability vision, Illinois Tech is implementing the projects and programs listed below in order to have an immediate, positive impact.

Campus Sustainability Projects

E-Waste

  • Non-reuseable E-waste is responsibly disposed of
  • E-Waste recycling program which works with Salvage Collections Reuse and Anti-Waste Project (SCRAP)
  • Scrap is a student organization that helps pull e-waste from the recycling stream that is considered practical for reuse in the form of distribution to those in need

Organic Waste

  • Waste to Wonder Composting Project
  • Project through CAMRAS to develop a composting program on campus that involves the student body and educates the community about the benefits
