    certainly, much of the best dumpster-diving occurs at the end of the academic year, when students leave behind mountains of barely-used items to clutter thousands of dumpsters across campuses.

    in fact, most of vestal’s office / home furniture and other wonderful goodies were saved from various Stanford dumpsters.
