UGA Encourages Gameday Recycling

      If you've ever walked through North campus after a football game, you've probably been shocked at how little some UGA fans and visitors respect our beautiful campus while tailgating. It usually looks like a bomb went off.

     This year, UGA has amped up their recycling program to encourage football fans to clean up after themselves and be smart about it. Check out a must-watch video HERE with tips for keeping campus clean. Make sure you utilize the resources available, including NEW Dawg House recycling bins:

• Clear recycling bags are available at any campus parking deck (to find a parking deck, click here), as well as many surface lots on campus. Please bag all recyclables (you can mix cans, cardboard, glass and plastic) and leave them at your tailgate with your trash bags, or

• Deposit your recyclables in the new Dawg House recycling bins. These will be located on your way to the stadium and you can deposit cans, glass and plastic bottles.

     Also, say thanks to the student volunteers you see wearing yellow "Recycle" t-shirts. You can read about their grassroots effort HERE.
