The final results are in for the Recyclemania Tournament, and BCC finished 17th in the nation out of 266 colleges and universities, with a 55.5% recycling rate (a jump from 26th in the nation last year). We finished 2nd out of 24 schools in the state of Massachusetts. Congratulations to the Mass Maritime Academy (#1 in Massachusetts and #3 in the nation with an 82% recycling rate). And congratulations to American University (#1 overall with an 85% recycling rate). During the “offseason” we’ll try to come up with ways to improve to a 60% recycling rate next year. We’ll also be “recruiting” for ideas (contact me or leave a comment in this site).
