Self-collection station promotes sustainability at SMU Open House 2026

This photograph captures prospective students passing through a self-collection station during SMU Open House 2026, where they could select complimentary items such as packet drinks, canned coffee, coconut water, flavoured buns, face masks, vouchers, and SMU mini backpacks. The collection point formed part of the visitor experience, offering attendees a range of refreshments and souvenirs while exploring the campus. Adopting a self-selection approach, the initiative reduced the resources required for pre-packed goodie bags and minimised unnecessary waste by allowing visitors to choose only the items they wanted. The system reflected SMU’s commitment to sustainability while enhancing the convenience and personalisation of the Open House experience.
