You have an impact!
A great way to practice sustainability this summer is to be conscious of how you dispose of your trash, especially in parks and wildlife areas. By making sure your trash and recycling makes it to the bins, you can help save the lives of birds, fish, and other wildlife.

Ava is excited to graduate from CMU in May 2024 with a Bachelor of Applied Arts in integrative public relations. While at CMU, Ava was involved in the Honors Program, the Chippewa Marching Band as the trumpet section leader, Alpha Sigma Alpha Sorority as its Vice President of Programming and CMU Euchre Club as its PR chair. She worked as an account assistant for Rathbun Public Relations, a sustainability coordinator for Central Sustainability, a corporate and foundation relations intern for CMU Advancement, and a PR intern and office assistant for the Home Builders Association of Central Michigan. As a sustainability coordinator for Central Sustainability, Ava started its social media pages in fall 2022 and watched them grow in following and substance. She enjoyed working on other projects and initiatives beyond social media as well, including website building, event management, sustainability education and video production. Ava believes her time with Central Sustainability made it possible for her to earn a job at WM (Waste Management) after graduation because it allowed her to integrate sustainability into PR, giving her experiences setting her apart from other candidates. Ava will start a communications and public affairs internship with WM after graduation, an opportunity she believes is the perfect culmination of her integrative public relations major and her passion for sustainability. She is excited to continue making the world a better place through sustainability communications! Congratulations Ava, you will be so missed! #LifeAtCentral #wedosustainability #fireupchips #centralsustainability #cmich #fireup #graduation #cmichgraduation
