The following is an excerpt from the College's Sustainable Computing Policy. It outlines the procedure for electronics reuse and recycling.
Recycling and Disposal
- Donations : ITS will donate or recycle all old computers and peripherals. ITS prioritizes donations as follows: (1) donation to non-profit educational institutions; (2) donation to other non-profit organizations; (3); gifts to for-profit organizations or companies committed to environmentally sound recycling or disposal.
- Recycling : If ITS cannot find institutions that will accept donations, or if computers or components are not functioning, ITS will give them to organizations or companies committed to repairing, selling or responsibly recycling or disposing of technology equipment.
- Other Computer Recycling : Due to the limited available space to store these systems this will occur once per block during the academic year. Individuals should bring old computer equipment to the Help Desk for donation or recycling during the specified window of time each block.
The College currently contracts with Guaranteed Recycling Experts.
