Community members from Â鶹ÊÓƵ and the city of Kent can recycle used electronics through Infinite Electronics Recycling LLC, an R2 certified recycler, where materials are handled in an environmentally and socially responsible way.

This drive is part of the university’s Campus Race to Zero Waste which is an institutional competition and benchmarking tool. Over 300 colleges and universities in the United States and Canada compete every year in recycling the most material and producing the least amount of waste.

Â鶹ÊÓƵ's Office of Sustainability reminds Flashes that everyone on the Kent Campus is a participant in the Campus Race to Zero Waste and invites people who want to learn more to follow the Office of Sustainability on social media for recycling tips and weekly updates.
