Williams is participating in RecycleMania, a friendly competition among colleges and universities to see who can reduce, reuse and recycle the most. During the ten week competition, each participating school will measure its recycleables and trash, and compete to see who can collect:

• the largest amount of recyclables per capita,
• the largest amount of total recyclables,
• the least amount of trash per capita,
• or have the highest recycling rate.

The competition stars on January 18, and will run through March 28.

Williams College Facilities will measure its recycleables and trash every week. Check back to see how Williams is doing.
