Thanks Ying Yee for the feedback! I’ll pass the info onto the CBL Faculty Coordinator who handles the event, Diane Shingledecker. I believe she has worked with Free Geek in the past.

They accept used hard drives and computer systems. The hard drives are wiped with “standard DOD” to securely delete any private information. The wiped hard drives are reused in refurbish computer systems. Refurbish systems are donated to charities.

Our e-cycling drive is definitely open to the alumni and community! You are welcome to leave your donations in the bin located in Sylvania’s Library. Thanks for continuing to support the e-cycling drive!

I especially like the link to the pcc.edu/ecycle page with the pictures of the hard drive smashing machines created by students. Question: is this service only for currently enrolled students? Or are alumni encouraged to use the bins? I live close to the campus and it would be really convenient for me.
