2006 Garbology Photo Album
Wednesday, October 25
On Wednesday, Metro High School students
were introduced to the Garbage Project. After viewing a series of video
clips about Dr. William Rathje's work, students received a personal
introduction to the project by Dr. Sheli Smith of the PAST Foundation,
who worked on the original Garbage Project as an undergraduate.
