Each year, during student move-out week, tons of goods are thrown away on the RIT campus. A few short months later, during fall move-in, students come back to campus and buy many of these same items. Goodbye, Goodbuy! wants to change this by setting up a process to reduce waste and keep usable items from landfills. The organization has expressed interest in improving their process for the future move-out/move-in cycles. More information on the Goodbye, Goodbuy! program can be found at https://www.rit.edu/goodbyegoodbuy/.
