Participate in the Campus Recyclethon
The Recyclethon begins February 9 and ends March 6. Teams collect recyclable material from campus, and weigh their items once a week. The team with the highest weight at the end of the competition wins, and each winning team member will receive their choice of a $100 Barnes and Noble gift card or $100 in Eagle Dining Dollars.
*This year there will be a separate student division, so student organizations won't have to compete with university departments.
