Oberlin College!

Oberlin College located in Ohio is an urban four year liberal arts college and conservatory of music. Oberlin College was founded in 1833 by a Presbyterian minister and missionary. It was the first college to grant bachelor's degrees to women. The college is known for its academic and musical excellence and its commitment to social justice, sustainability, and diversity. Lastly Oberlin has a population of about 8600 students.

Oberlin has a program called Office o Environmental Sustainability. The Board of Trustees at Oberlin decided to this program because they believed we as a people need to help save our planet. They formed this program with faculty,students, administrators, and townspeople. They also believed refill stations will help us save plastics and drink cleaner water.

Oberlin College actually use refill stations. They named their refill stations after the city. It is called OberlinFilter. They install these filters mainly in the food areas where they have most of their water supply, and in the different academic buildings. The logo they use just says Oberlin in between two sets of 6 bars of metal. (pretty catchy.)

This is the filters logo.This is the filter.

I would actually consider using this filter because it looks like it gets the job done. This obviously drew me in so I think it'll draw others in to!
