Residence Life encourages students to reuse, repurpose, rock out

H.E.N.stock encourages participants to be more environmentally sustainable by asking them to think about donating unwanted items to the sale, and purchasing reusable items instead of buying new in order to decrease consumption and increase awareness about responsible purchasing.
