Instead of just tossing out your trash, reduce the amount of waste sent to the landfill by composting. Hoya Hospitality composts back-of-house food waste in our kitchens. You can compost at Leo’s and Epicurean too. Epicurean and Leo’s has compost, trash, and recycling options for post-consumer food waste.

Sign up for Hoya Hospitality's reusable to-go box program and use the to-go boxes to reduce single-use waste. Start by picking up a token at Leo’s welcome desk down stairs and following the instructions linked on this action.

I will turn off the lights and power down/unplug electronic devices when not in use. These sticker and light switch covers were driven by the winning student group from the Georgetown Energy Innovation Challenge (GEIC).
