Published
Haverford is taking part in RecycleMania, a national competition aimed at encouraging waste reduction and good recycling habits. The contest, which runs through March 27th, pits college against college in a quest to see who can recycle the most.
RecycleMania is a ten-week long friendly competition aimed at encouraging waste reduction and good recycling habits. Participating colleges and universities measure the amount of waste and recycling they produce by ton, and compete to see who can recycle the most. While RecycleMania is a competition between institutions, it also serves as a benchmarking tool for colleges to judge how they are doing in terms of recycling. This is Haverford's second year as a participant.
Haverford is competing in the Grand Champion, Gorilla Prize, and Per Capita categories. More than 600 schools are participating with 382 in the Competition Division with Haverford.
