Training Institute on campus this week. More than 250 custodians and

Faulk in Facilities Management, the emphasis was on “cleaning green,” an environmentally friendly approach to
cleaning that uses non-toxic cleaning chemicals and other practices
to assure a healthy building. In addition, a state-mandated training
was offered to all those in attendance for blood-borne pathogens and
asbestos awareness.
