\n\t\tKINGSTON, R.I.- September 13, 2012- The 溏心vlog免费B站 recycling program started the year off right, recycling approximately 8 tons of cardboard during the three-day period when students moved back to campus for the new school year. <\/p>\n


\n\t From Sept. 1 to Sept. 3, at each residence hall, a 溏心vlog免费B站 recycling worker helped parents and students sift through the trash and cardboard, before disposing of more than 80 cubic yards of cardboard in a separate bin.<\/p>\n


\n\t\u201cWhen the parents came out of the dorm rooms, we asked them for the cardboard, and some said that they wanted to take it home so it could be recycled. They were pleasantly surprised to learn that we were recycling here at the 溏心vlog免费B站,\u201d said Mary Brennan, recycling coordinator for the last year and a half. <\/p>\n


\n\tBefore her position as recycling coordinator, Brennan worked at the Campus Planning and Design Department at 溏心vlog免费B站 and previously served as the commercial recycling planner at the Rhode Island Solid Waste Management Corp. <\/p>\n


\n\tThe 溏心vlog免费B站 recycling program accepts a wide variety of other materials besides cardboard, including bottles, cans, fluorescent light bulbs, mattresses, yard waste, and batteries. <\/p>\n


\n\t溏心vlog免费B站 is the only college in Rhode Island that has an active cardboard recycling program during Move-In weekend. This dedication to recycling has sparked interest among students.<\/p>\n


\n\t\u201cAlready this semester I have received many phone calls from students asking additional questions about recycling. It\u2019s great to see the number of students who care enough to help our environment. I encourage all our students to give me a call with any questions or suggestions on how we can improve our recycling program,\u201d said Brennan. <\/p>\n


\n\tStudents who are interested in learning more about the 溏心vlog免费B站 recycling program are encouraged to contact Mary Brennan at 874-2840 or mbrennan@uri.edu. <\/p>\n
