New compostable tea bag and wrapper

Earlier this month, SRWC transitioned to Teatulia tea (Bigelow is no longer stocked) as it is a sustainable brand that aligns with Stanford’s zero waste mission. The Teatulia tea wrappers and bags are compostable, so please dispose of them in the compost bin. We appreciate your support as we continue our efforts to minimize waste.

Dishwasher detergent use

Remember to use only dishwasher detergents in the dishwashers across campus. Please do not use regular dish soap as it may lead to technical issues. In case your department is out of detergent, please submit a service request to have that restocked.  

Schedule a Faculty Staff Help Center appointment in SRWC

Your mental and emotional health matters to us. Now, you can schedule free, confidential counseling and consultation with the Faculty Staff Help Center on Thursdays at Cardinal Hall.
