Haverford starts composting program

HAVERFORD, Pa.—Even though Haverford may lag behind some of our fellow liberal arts colleges in its dedication to recycling and conservation, it is definitely taking steps to show greater initiative. Haverford started composting this semester at the Dining Center. The college selected a small company, Philly Compost, to handle the compost from the DC. However, even though Dining Center now composts, few students seem to know exactly how committed the college is to environmental obligations. As Nell Durfee ’14, a member of the Haverford Committee on Environmental Responsibility, worried that many students don’t realize that the college actually composts, which is why Composting Week was initiated.
