Sustainable Materials Fair

On Wednesday, March 30th, USGBC and IDS hosted their 2nd Annual Sustainable Materials Fair. Local representatives from different companies to Mount Ida to show and inform students about their products. Students had the opportunity to speak with the representatives, see physical samples of the products, ask questions, and most importantly, learn about what makes these companies stand out- sustainability
Along with educating the students, these representatives also generously donated samples to our resource library, and contributed door prizes for attendees to win! With their generosity, this event was a great success!

Students now have more ideas of what companies and specific products to use in their designs, as well as being more educated in these decisions. 

A special Thank You to all of our generous vendors, we hope to see you again next year!
