RecycleMania is an eight-week recycling competition between colleges in the United States and Canada, according to the tournament’s website.

Glorifying God by preserving his earth — that’s the idea behind the Sustainability Student Advisory Board.
The board is a group of students who provide feedback to the university through the sustainability coordinator and share their ideas about sustainability at Baylor in an effort to improve green efforts on campus, said Smith Getterman, sustainability coordinator.
Getterman shares the students’ opinions with the University Sustainability Committee, which works to achieve university-wide sustainability goals.
