We view Earth Day as another way to inform students about the progress we have made with our environmental measures on campus and in the community. But (we view it) also as a way to celebrate a great year with some great music, fun activities and hopefully a new appreciation for the environment.

The biggest benefit (is)?that a competition allows people to ask questions about recycling without any hang-ups. They have a stake in it, they have ownership in it, so they are going to inform themselves about it.
