Ever wonder what the Logan Recycling Center is like?

04/20/2026

โ™ป๏ธ What does it really take to improve recycling on campus?

Students in ENVS 4700, Jane Greaves, K Leikis, Linnea Onushco, Savannah Ransom and Ella Whitesides, took that question on through a semester long project focused on improving recycling education and awareness on USUโ€™s Logan Main Campus.

After meeting with community partners and gathering input from students, the group identified major gaps in recycling knowledge, and high levels of cross contamination in recycling bins.

This Earth Week ๐ŸŒŽ, we want to share the social media videos these amazing students made!
