WHITEWATER, Wis. — As part of a green initiative, the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater Instructional, Communications and Information Technology (iCIT) Department has launched a new recycling program to reduce technology “e-waste.”
The campus-wide program called TREE, which is short for “Technology Repurposing and Electronics E-cycling,” is designed to properly handle e-waste. E-waste is a term for electronic products, such as computers, printers and cell phones that are nearing the end of their useful life.
