Can your promotional material be recycled?
Students value employers who are responsible corporate citizens so we encourage you to use promotional materials that can be recycled. Avoid wax covered and laminated paper. Consider carefully any free items you give to students at fairs or information sessions. Suggestions for recyclable items: calico/paper show bags instead of plastic, USB pens, bottled water, solar power adapter
