Used But Not Bruised Notebooks
BY TEMARA BROWN, MACINSIDERS
The used but not bruised notebook campaign is a project coordinated by volunteers with MACgreen. Using scrap paper usually which has something printed on one side and the other side blank, these volunteers bind and create notebooks. These not only save trees, but will cost less than a regular notebook and support more green initiatives! Win Win Win! YAY!
Donate paper - due to the recent flooding in the MACgreen office, there has been a shortage of paper for this project. So, drop off your one side blank paper to the MSU office, MUSC 201. If you're working in an office this summer, encourage them to collect donate their paper as well!
Volunteer - this project is currently seeking volunteers to help with the production of these notebooks! The more hands, the more notebooks they can make! There will also be fun nights organized for everyone to bind the books together. If you're interested in volunteering, contact Bhavna at [email protected].
Purchase a Notebook - When the school year rolls around, be sure to purchase one of these notebooks from the bookstore!
*All funds raised from this initiave go back to support futher green initiatives!*

They can cut them down to size to fit... they'll adjust it to best use the paper.
