Recycle Mania began in February 2001 when Ed Newman (Ohio University) and Stacey
Edmonds (Miami University) decided that something was needed to increase recycling in the
residence and dinning halls on their campuses. RECYCLE MANIA WAS BORN!!! During this 10
week competition Miami U and Ohio U went head to head to see who could recycle the most.
The first year Miami U took home the trophy with 41.2 lbs of material recycled per student.
Recycle Mania has since been gaining more and more momentum (approximately doubling participation
each year).
