21st After Two Weeks

After two weeks, BCC is 21st out of 228 colleges and universities.  Our current recycling rate is 56% which is up from last year’s rate, but our goal, as part of the Zero Waste initiative, is to get to 60% this year, so every bit of help is appreciated.  (In 2010 we had a 45% rate – we can do this).
