One of the initiatives involves the blue recy­ cling bins found around campus that were donat­ ed by USA Today and will help serve a dual pur­ pose. In addition to helping increase newspaper recycling, the proceeds from the program will be wisely used to help fund the newspaper program recently initiated at Eastem.

Since the money raised through the recy­ cling program will help the university pay for newspaper subscriptions, the newspaper program will be more likely to be ftmded in years to come. Eastem has created a reputation of being a good recycling school and was awarded an honorable mention for "Outstanding University Recycling Program" in 1998. The newspaper recycling pro­ gram will only help build upon the reputation. Recycling newspapers on campus, as a result of the new program, gives students a reason to recy­ cle. Of course, the environmental benefits of recy­ cling is a reason to recycle, but if students are get­ ting something for their recycling, in this case the continuation of the newspaper program, they will be more likely to do so. For students on campus, there is now a reward for recycling.
