One week from today (February 24th), MPR will be doing a broadcast from BSU.
Attendance is FREE of charge, and open to the public and students! The topic of the broadcast will be on climate change. MPR News journalist Dan Kraker, and editor Mike Edgerly will be discussing their recent special report on climate change in Minnesota. The broadcast will be at Hagg-Sauer 100 at 2 pm.
As you all may have heard, the BSU Student Senate unanimously voted on passing the bill that would ban the sale of bottled water on campus! This means that the sale of unflavored, plain bottled water will no longer be an option to buy on campus starting as of the Fall 2016 semester. Adding more Elkay water bottle filling stations to campus buildings is in the works. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to stop by the sustainability office to voice them.
On February 24th at 2 pm, MPR will be on campus doing a radio broadcast. This will be held in Hagg-Sauer 100.
