College kid looking for work, scrapping worth the time?

Talk to the IT people and find out where their stuff goes, at the very least you might be able to find where to sell stuff that way, at best, you find sources for scrap. :-D

Yes definitely I was telling another person on this post that about 30 to 35 thousand students attend my school so they must have tons of scrap. I didnt even think about it until you guys mentioned it.
