Right now I’d like to introduce you to Professor Dumpster (aka Dr. Jeff Wilson). He’s a college professor (and Dean) at the Huston-Tillotson University in Austin, Texas who’s decided to move into a dumpster and live in it for one year.

I’ve shown you how a dumpster can be turned into a micro house before thanks to Greg Kloehn (artist) in this post way back in 2012.

In 2014, I showed you how Kloehn is building micro homes for the homeless out of unwanted and now recycled ‘garbage’.

In February 2014 I included a video introducing you to ‘Professor Dumpster’ (shown here) who started converting and living in a 34 sq. ft. dumpster on campus on this post.

So right now, I want to dig a little deeper to explore what Dr. Jeff Wilson (Professor Dumpster) is doing and why he’s doing it. I think you’ll enjoy it.
