Hamilton students are heading back to campus with tales about their spring break adventures. But there’s no time for a post spring break letdown because college calendar is loaded with lectures, performances and events from now until the end of the semester.

Students and Hamilton community members across campus geared up on January 17 to increase efforts to protect the planet, as RecycleMania 2010 kicked off for colleges and universities around the globe.

Hamilton’s Environmental Action Group (HEAG) and Recycling Task Force distributed free mugs to members of the community who signed a pledge to sort and minimize waste. The reusable mugs, distributed as part of Hamilton’s Recyclemania campaign, will be used instead of disposable paper cups in Commons. Hamilton is one of 400 colleges across the country participating in Recyclemania. This contest, sponsored by the EPA, encourages waste reduction and waste minimization with a friendly challenge to improve campus recycling.
