Clemson to celebrate America Recycles Day Friday

Help Clemson University celebrate America Recycles Day on Friday, Nov.14.

As part of the celebration, the Recycling Services department will be on hand from 8 a.m. until 9:30 a.m. at Harcombe and from 11:30 a.m. until  1:15 p.m. at Schilletter dining hall with university recycling program information, giveaways and more. Faculty, staff and students are invited to attend.

Here are some other ways to participate:

  • Take a recycling “selfie” and post it to your  social networks – you just  might win a prize! The next time you recycle something in your home, office or anywhere else, take a photo of yourself and post it with the hashtag #RecyclingSelfie on your Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or Tumblr account.
  • Take the “I Recycle” pledge:  Choose a new material to focus on recycling in 2015, and invite a friend or family member to pledge. Five people who take the pledge will win a park bench made from recycled content.
