RecycleMania
A brief description of the campaign, including how students and/or employees were engaged:
Endicott participates in RecycleMania every year, which is an 8-week recycling competition in February and March between colleges and universities across the country. The competition requires us to measure performance of recycling and waste diversion. As part of the RecycleMania campaign, we host events throughout the competition focusing on waste, reuse, and sustainability. Event examples include "Show the Waste" (food waste awareness in the dining hall), RecycleMania Trivia, Game Day Recycling Challenge at home basketball games, and an Office FreeCycle.
A brief description of the measured positive impact(s) of the campaign:
Measurement includes the change in all material collected for recycling, composting, and food donations. As the competition progresses and awareness spreads, we are able to measure the increase in volume and quality of recycled material on campus.
