waterfill station for refillable bottlesDid you know? By using the waterfill stations, Langara's students, staff and faculty have saved over 2.2million plastic bottles from the landfill to date.

Langara College has waterfill stations installed in multiple buildings across campus to provide access to clean filtered drinking water. This is part of our water maintenance strategy to provide drinking water to staff, faculty and students while reducing cost and waste. 

The waterfill stations have a built-in UV filter and are touchless, thereby providing contactless method to get drinking water using your refillable container. Note: the spout function has been disabled for health and safety reasons. Please use the touchless function to access water.

There are currently 29 waterfill stations across campus, and eight more waterfill stations are scheduled to be installed in the near future. Here is the current list of locations:

In 2007, Langara established a multifaith room. It is located in C327 at the 3rd floor link between buildings A & C.

The purpose of the multifaith room is to provide a respectful and dignified space for individuals to practise their religion. The space is intended for quiet prayer or meditation, and is open during regular College hours. It is not intended for use as study or meeting space.

We try to recycle as much as possible at Langara College. Around campus, you will find four-stream bins (organics, paper, mixed recyclables, and landfill) situated in all buildings as well as outside on our grounds. 

In addition to these regular streams, we also have a Recycling Station in our cafeteria where, in addition to the above streams, you can also recycle:

  • E-waste, such as phones, computers, keyboards, and other old electronics (Remember to erase all personal data before recycling).
  • Soft plastics, such as plastic bags and overwrap (non-crinkly plastic that stretches when you try to put your finger through it). 
  • Batteries
  • Cardboard
  • Glass

Recycling towards student bursaries
Being environmentally conscious has its benefits. If you have a refundable bottle or can, recycle it in one of our red "Refundables" bins, that are located around campus and at the Recycling station. All refundable cans and bottles are returned for money that goes towards student bursaries. 

Disposable mask recycling
Have a disposable mask? Recycle it in one of our tall cardboard mask recycling stations located at various entrances.
