The mission of the MIT Working Group Recycling 
Committee is to develop and deliver programs that 
educate administrative and support staff about 
recycling, reducing and reusing goods. Efforts 
include identifying/addressing gaps in staff 
understanding about recycling as well as gaps in 
recycling resources and creating ways to increase 
recycling at MIT.
