BILL HISTORY
There has been a dramatic rise in recycling and resource management concerns
nationally, locally, and on cam pus in the last year. In ah effort to recognize and
address these concerns, a Resource and Recycling Management Committee was
proposed and established by UCSU in January of 1989. This committee was given
the task of examining the means and feasibility of implementing recycling and
resource management theory as practice in UCSU's Cost Centers.
The Recycling and Resource Management Committee has fulfilled this task.
Though countless hours of the efforts of individuals associated with many groups,
including the Greens, the Environmental center, and CU Recycling, student
opinions have been surveyed, changes researched, and policies created. The result
of these efforts have yielded a substantial document, which represents a plan of
action and a set of guideline policies.
It is the hope of the Recycling and Resource Management committee that this type
of document will be recognized as grounds for a permanent policy. The

establishment of a Recycling and Resource Management Commission would be
appropriate to administer such a policy.
BILL SUMMARY

Commission. This requires a simple majority vote of the UCSU Legislative
Council, as specified in the UCSU Constitution in Article VIII, Section B. A single
