Moving in? We've got you covered. 📦

Cardboard recycling stations will be set up on campus starting August 24th through August 31st. Break down your boxes before disposing, and we will handle the rest.

We can’t wait to welcome everyone back to campus!

Last week, we welcomed over 130 students to Year 2 of our Grad Giveaway pilot!

With help from BU CPO, items repurposed from a previous move-out session were showcased in a makeshift thrift store at 700 Beacon Street.

These pieces got a second life — helping grad students furnish their new homes for the upcoming term.

It was amazing to see this program come full circle, and we can't wait to keep building on it.

Welcome to our new series, The Intern Files, where we take you behind the scenes at BU Sustainability through the eyes of our interns.

This week, Sophia and Parren give us a look into life on the Events & Engagement team, sharing what they do and what it's like to help bring sustainability initiatives to life on campus.

Stay tuned to meet more of our incredible intern team and learn about the work happening across BU Sustainability!

Last week, BU Sustainability spent the day exploring the Seaport for our annual summer team outing!

We wandered the ICA's galleries and caught a glimpse of the historic Tall Ships in Boston Harbor.

We loved spending the day outside with the team! 🌱
