<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">Dear Tang Residents,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>This is Qifang Bao, the Gardening & Recycling Chair of the Tang Hall Residents Association. Please allow me to welcome all the new residents of Tang as well as greet our old friends. </div>
<div><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Here I would like to pass along some information about Tang you may be interested in:</span></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><b>1. Gardening Pre-registration</b></div>
<div>As you may notice, the gardening area in front of Tang (right beside the Tech shuttle station) is flouring as the season of harvest comes. Westgate residents are taking care of the garden this year, but we may be able to share this area with them in the
future. If you would like to work in the garden next spring and harvest your own flowers/fruits/vegetables next fall, please sign up in the flowing link:</div>

<div><b>2. Reuse Email List</b></div>
<div>There is a Tang reuse mailing list for our inner use to exchange information about selling/giving away items you don't need: <a href="mailto:tang-reuse-free@mit.edu" style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; font-family: 'Open Sans', arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13.63636302947998px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">tang-reuse@mit.edu</a>.</div>

<div><b>3. Recycling</b></div>
<div>We strongly encourage recycling in Tang. You can bring cardboard boxes, plastic bags and other items that are recyclable down to the ground floor and put them in the recycling bins outside the back door of the dorm.</div>
<div>Please notice that there will not be any cleaning staff collecting recyclable items from each apartment, so please do not leave the items in the corridor of each floor.</div>
<div><br>

<div>Finally, wish everyone has a good time here in Tang, and let's put our efforts together to live clean and green. </div>
<div>All the best with the new semester :)</div>
