Green Team for the all-stars

When the Major League Baseball (MLB) All-Star Game came to Minnesota in July, a local team swung into action. Sporting Green Team hats, t-shirts, and gloves, 36 U students grabbed color-coded waste bags provided by MLB and worked the aisles between innings, helping fans recycle and manage their recyclable and compostable waste. Game-time action was part of a two-week online course, KIN 4520, Soup to Nuts: MLB All-Star Game, taught by School of Kinesiology’s Tiffany Richardson. She worked closely with the league, designing the course so students could get experience working directly with MLB.
