SIUE Students Clean Up Campus on Earth Day
Southern Illinois University Edwardsville students from Eta Sigma Gamma (ESG), the community health education student organization, celebrated Earth Day by collecting trash and debris from the SIUE bike trails.
“As health educators, environmental health and protection is part of what we do,” said Corinne Goodall, president of ESG and senior majoring in community health. “It’s gorgeous out today, and we thought this would be a fun, simple way to help keep our campus beautiful.”
The students emphasized that SIUE is their home and were eager to contribute to its cleanliness.
“We saw a need, and we’re here to help,” said Megan Kaiser, a senior majoring in community health. “This is one of the largest campuses in Illinois, so everyone needs to do their share.”
“We love and respect our campus and our campus community,” added Jennifer Caumiant, instructor in the Department of Applied Health and ESG advisor. “The leadership in this group is phenomenal. I’m always overwhelmed and fortunate to 
work with such a passionate group of students.”
