Reusable Mug Project

Sponsored by the CSB/SJU Environmental Studies Program

Reusable CSB/SJU logo travel mugs were given to all incoming students  in an effort to reduce the number of plastic bottles consumed on campus.  Special pricing for refills was arranged with campus fountain vendors and additional deals are being sought with local merchants.  Upper-class students wishing to buy a mug will find them for sale in the campus bookstores and at McGlynn's. 

Mug pricing update: McGlynn's has agreed to offer the same prices as Sexton. Now soft drink refills will be $.50 on each campus, coffee $.89.
