This summer flew by, but we can’t wait to see you all on campus! If you need something such as a microwave, fan, plates, hangers, or anything else you may have forgotten, stop by AQ Thrifts!

This is completely free for our students and a great way to keep items out of the landfill!

Thanks for being a Sustainable Saint 🌱🐶
