Clean Campus Committee Campaigns for Clean Up Day Against Litterbugs Campaigning for a cleaner campus, the Lancer College 100 is sponsoring Clean Up week this week, and more specifically, College Clean Up Day today. The event began at 7:30 this morning with a pep rally in the Prairie. Pasadena's mayor, Seth Miller, honored the festivities with his presence, to officially kickoff Clean Up Day. A Clean Up Queen was announced and crowned at this morning’s rally to officially reign over litterbug week. In addition, a surprise skit was put on by members of the College 100 and a pep band added music to the activity. College 100 members have spent the past few days arranging backdrops and hoops for the campus waste cans. Their plan is to encourage students to pick up their litter and deposit in the proper disposal places. To further urge their doing this, three prizes will be given to students “caught” picking up litter. A spotting committee has been on the lookout for clean campus keepers this past week. Signs have been displayed during this week to publicize and emphasize the importance of cleanliness on campus. Students are urged to use their plastic litter bags at this time to help the College 100 continue their litterbug campaign.
