During my time as a student assistant at the Butte College SRC I helped plan sustainability-related events such as the Earth Day celebration, and I authored a “Green Purchasing Policy,” which I presented to the Butte College Associated Students and has since been adopted and implemented by the Butte College Office of Student Life. The “Green Purchasing Policy” was designed to promote environmentally preferable purchasing decisions in the office setting, and included guidance regarding items from electronics, to promotional items, to cleaning products.
