Room to Room War

In the midst of the coming Xavier Days, Asul went room to room to spread the message of Trash Zero, a campaign for campus cleanliness. I was surprised to see that these students have more than enough confidence to capture the audience and transmit the message. Trash Zero is as simple as 1-2-3. I'll reserve the details later. For now, I just want to share how this seemingly common effort be integrated in the whole agenda of campus cleanliness. I always see this as a 3-front battle just like in WW2. Front 1 is the front for policy. The key people here are the administrators and the students, whose constant lobbying can make a difference. Front 2 is the hardware where actual physical things facilitate the agenda. Front 3, the student engagement where students engage fellow students by way of advocacy and leadership. This is where ASUL's initative could fit. Even though it is just a tiny part of the whole effort, it is integral in bringing about a new greener consciousnesses among the members of the community.

thank you asulites for being part of this great move!
