Recyclemania is a nationwide recycling competition occuring in dorms at several different colleges and universities. Here at the University of Michigan, the Greek Life Sustainability Team is kicking off their very own competition called "Recyclemania: Let's Get Wastless". Where Recyclemania aims to promote waste reduction across all campus communities, GLIST focuses specifically on the Greek Community on campus. Our overall goals through this program are to motivate students involved in Greek Life to increase their sustainable practice as well as help them to see how easy recycling can be. In addition, we hope that the fraternaties and sororities who are already involved in the competition set a benchmark for the remainder of Greek houses on campus in terms of sustainable efforts and recycling practices.
