While I did not create slides for this campus presentation, The Environmental Colaboratory had student groups on campus that were awarded grants last year to present their progress. My group was awarded $5,000 to set up a secondhand clothing store on campus that would facilitate the redistribution of unwanted clothes, the downcycling of unwearable clothes, educational events to promote sustainability within fashion, and collect data on campus clothing habits. We have had a successful partnership with Westphal's Reworn store, which has allowed us to grow within this year and have much to talk about during this event. The presentation occured Thursday the 28th from 6-7:30pm in PISB lobby and our presentation was titled Impact of Second Hand Campus Storefront On Reducing Textile Landfill Waste.
