Outside of the MS is a bin that the students can go through. Once it begi=
ns to fill up, we will organize it in the hallway of the office for stude=
nts to look through. We give our students a certain date (several per yea=

in the office. If it's not picked up by the designated time, then we dona=
te to a charity. This seems to be working well for us.
