Eastern Connecticut State University’s Institute of Sustainable Energy hosted a booth celebrating sustainability in the Student Center on April 12. Faculty, staff and students were invited to stop by and learn about sustainability via a PowerPoint presentation and videos on on-campus recycling. “We wanted to show students the importance of living a sustainable lifestyle,” said Jenna Lafleur, university assistant. “We gave individuals who passed by the opportunity to take the pledge to live with greater attention to our impact on energy and the environment for now and for years to come.” Students were able to take a photo in Eastern Celebrates selfie frames as well as catch a preview of the Eastern Sustainability t-shirts, which are being sold in the bookstore. All Eastern students, faculty and staff were welcome.
