On April 22, as part of celebrating Earth Day, about 11 students participated in Lewis’ Clean-Up Day by walking down the path of the Burnham Centennial Nature Trail by Lot W, and picking up the trash.
“The purpose of having a Clean-Up Day at Lewis is to raise awareness around litter that ends up on our campus and in our community,” said Director of Sustainability and Facilities Administration John Lerczak. “At the start of the clean-up, participants are encouraged to download the Litterati app and contribute to the Trash Bash.”
