New Housing Hub SharePoint Site
|
Notice anything new? The Housing Hub SharePoint site, our internal resource for Housing staff, recently switched to the new SharePoint Online platform, which brings easier access and a new design! All of the same content you rely on from the previous version is still there, along with a few new items. Links to the old Housing Hub site will redirect for now, but please update your bookmarks to the new URL. You can also get to the new site at go.wisc.edu/housing-hub.

Seeking Sustainable Move-Out Volunteers!
|
Over 100,000 pounds of material is diverted from the landfill annually through University Housing's Sustainable Move-Out initiative that benefits over 12 Madison-area community organizations. This year, we're especially in need of authorized drivers to serve as Rovers, driving between sites to transport larger items between May 11-13. Shifts are in 2-hour increments and can be a great opportunity to get outside and meet students or other colleagues in Housing. Sign up for a shift or contact sustainability@housing.wisc.edu with any questions.
