The water bottle filling station in the Cannon Student Center is marking its one year anniversary.
The station was funded by the Âé¶¹APP Student Government's Finance Committee. That committee appropriated just over $500 in 2016 from the SGA Activity Fund to retrofit the water fountain to a water bottle filling station with a filter.
To date, almost 18,000 water fills have been made at the station, eliminating that many plastic bottles of water.
It caused one student, an Environmental Steward at the College to wonder: "Imagine the impact if we could get more of these installed on campus."
