Staff can help in quest for recycling glory

UCSC has thrown down the gauntlet (and will put it in the recycling bin later) by entering for the first time in ReycleMania, an annual friendly competition among college and university recycling programs nationwide. “We want to get involved and start a stronger culture of recycling on campus, and we thought this would be a way to do it,” said UCSC Recycling Coordinator Dave Wade. The overall purpose of the competition is to increase recycling awareness, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t room for a little smack-talk. [More]
