The University of Central Florida has a beautiful campus. I walked from one end to the other today looking for a building so that I could get some info. I even met a pleasant, friendly, and helpful Freshman that was able to get me where I needed to go.
One thing that I do when lost on campus is pick up random pieces of trash that I come across. It could be 20 years of habit reinforced by a year of working at Disney, or it could be that I don't want my campus looking trashy. That's part of being proud of something, you want it to look sharp and professional. I do the same thing at work, as I am walking into my store, I pick up trash in the parking lot.
I don't go out of my way to pick up the trash, if it is a couple feet away, one or two steps, I'll grab it and drop it in one of the trashcans that are everywhere. Well, today I actually gave up after all of the trash that I had picked up. If every student strolling, walking, or rolling around campus would pick up just a single piece of trash I'll bet the place would stay clean.
