Out With The College Stuff

By Mike | February 6, 2007


With the college application process pretty much winded down, I thought it was about time I went through my college mail (and clean my room in the process). It turned out to be quite an undertaking, because of the sheer volume of a year’s worth of college mailbox spamming. But the reason it took three hours was because I had to sort through the mail, decide which letters to keep, and “gut” the envelopes to recycle the paper. Hey, every bit of green helps!

“Gutting” an envelope involves ripping out those pesky plastic windows that allow the address to peek through, throwing out the plastic (heck, recycle those if you want to, but I don’t think the mixture of plastic film, glue, and residual paper is good for the recycling centers) and recycling paper part of the envelope. You can also reuse the letters inside the envelopes as scrap paper (a stack seen on the bottom of the picture).

In the end, the stack of college mail made a pile about 2 feet high and warranted its own recycling box. Now, some acceptance letters would be nice…
