PEEPS HOST RIBBON CUTTING FOR RECYCLING PROGRAM
In keeping with their eco-friendly ideals, members of PEEPS (People for the Earth’s Environmental Preservation Society) at Spoon River College provided a recycled ribbon made of old newspapers for the ribbon cutting held on the Canton campus to kick off the new campus wide recycling program at the college.
The event was in response to the new recycling bins recently purchased by the college that will be distributed around the campus.
PEEPS is a student organization on both the Canton and Macomb campuses that works to improve the environment through projects, educational field trips and other activities through the exploration of all areas of science.
