    End of semester is big for business in college towns.

    I live in Murfreesboro, Tennessee which is home to the largest university in the state (MTSU). When the end of the semester was drawing near I thought it would be a good idea to place notices around campus advertising my ewaste recycling business for those looking to clean out dorms and apartments. The past week has been a huge success and I have picked up two truck beds full of equipment in the last two days from both teachers and students looking to lighten their load when they move. Just thought I would pass the idea along to anyone who may be in a college town looking for another advertising opportunity.
