DID YOU KNOW?
Your recyclable food containers do not have to be spotless to be recycled at UofL. Some yogurt left at the bottom of the cup? A little gravy stuck to that microwavable meal tray? No problem! Containers need to be emptied but not rinsed before they are placed in your recycling bin.

5.) Green Tip: Tired of paying for parking and gas? Try something different!
Instead of renewing a parking permit, why not save money, burn calories and protect the planet on your commute? Try these better options: 1. Earn-A-Bike: Forgo a permit for two years to earn a $400 bike shop voucher. Apply by Aug. 28. 2. Ride the entire TARC bus system free with UofL ID! 3. UofL Carpooling: Zimride is a free, secure way to find and offer rides. 4. Once on campus, get around with UofL Bike-Share (free daily check-outs) or borrow a fuel-efficient vehicle from UofL Car-Share ($10 to join).
6.) New consent form templates for IRB submissions required
Requirement begins July 21
Effective Monday, investigators should begin using revised IRB approved consent templates that include information required by the HITECH Act. These have been posted on the HSPPO website. For studies already approved, HITECH changes will be requested at continuation review.
