Be Crimson, Go green and set the trend of being a better neighbor and more environmentally aware to allow Pullman to be as great to the future cougs as it was for the past and present!

Throughout the week of October 1-6, Set the Trend will focus on environmental stewardship and taking responsibility for the Pullman, as well as one's own life. ADCAPS will be on site to educate cougs on the new College Hill Ordinances as well as other regional groups to demonstrate the impact of waste and how to easily contribute to the solution.

Information & educational booths will be set up in the Student Recreation Center all week to educate patrons about the opportunities to get involved with in the community and how to reduce personal impact on the environment. Booths will also be present at the Homecoming Street Fair, Homecoming Block Party, and the mall several days during the week.

Special events include various clean-up and community outreach projects such as Green Tuesday, where teams participating in Homecoming can receive 25 points for their clean up contribution. There are several fun community service projects to choose from, including harvesting and delivering food to the local food bank, helping create a community garden, planting trees and more. This is the perfect week to increase your overall wellbeing by giving back to the community, environment, and yourself by participating in something with a positive purpose.
