Brighton Campus Earth Day - "Is This Recyclable"

On Wednesday, May 1, contestants from all areas of the Brighton campus converged on the Atrium to participate in Is This Recyclable? The Earth Day celebration "game show", sponsored by the MCC Recycling and Sustainability committees and the Student Sustainability Club, quizzed students and staff members on whether common campus use items, such as pizza boxes, water bottles, plastic utensils, etc. should be placed in the blue recycling bins or the brown landfill bins. Winning contestants (all contestants won) then spun a prize wheel and were awarded reusable grocery bags made from recycled plastic bottles, Grow Monroe bag clips, or items from Java's, Sodexo, Food for Thought and the Bookstore. Information about Grow Monroe and Monroe County Eco-Park was available to all who attended. Everyone who participated learned a little more about recycling at MCC. Many thanks to all who helped with this event and all sponsors! Finally, please read the signs on the bins before you make your recycling choice and "When In Doubt, Throw It Out."
