How clean do recyclables need to be before they are put in the recycling bin? You don’t have to them in the dishwasher or scrub them. All you need to do is add a little water and give a good swish until most of the contents are removed. Few spots are ok! RecycleSpot.org

Most people suck at presenting data. Instead of telling a story they throw numbers at the audience. Here are 7 crucial tips to present your data effectively:

I am Ho-Chunk from Wisconsin, and on this #IndigenousPeoplesDay, I recognize the immense contribution of our Indigenous community that has helped shape our country. We also must remember the Native lives lost through generations of mistreatment and work to uphold their legacy.

Screening the vitally important testimony of Chief Ben Barnes , our very own Rep. Sharice Davids , and others on this Indigenous Peoples Day. We’ll be in Craig (GEB233) until 1. All are welcome to join us to bear witness and learn.

We started w/ Midwest A&WMA this morning, JCCC students in the middle, & Dutch faculty visiting campus this afternoon, then wrapped up with community tours of Open Petal Farm. If you’re looking for a great hands-on learning opportunity, we would love to have you visit! #thisisjccc
