Austin and Jennifer Tanner from St. Anthony launched A2T2 Bin Cleaning Pros last month as a side business to save for retirement—using a trailer with heated water to clean garbage cans.

🎓 Education
BYU–Idaho Spirit Week was held last week to mark 25 years since the school changed from Ricks College to a four-year university.
The week included events—such as service night, a live memorial broadcast, carnival, parade and gala—that brought together students, alumni and professors to celebrate school growth, faith and community.
At its annual pre-professional conference in the Gordon B.
Hinckley Building, the English department invited BYUI alumna Liz Lowham—an award-winning young adult author—to advise aspiring writers on writing authentically and focusing on character, sharing lessons from her recent novel Sonnet and Snakes released on Oct 7. She encouraged students to overcome self-imposed limits and embrace their unique voice in every piece they create.
