In the sixth week of the Race for Waste competition, Kansas State University is in first place in the Big 12 in both diversion and per capita categories. There is still time to increase our recycling efforts over the next two weeks. The competition began on Jan. 30 and continues through March 26. Let's keep the drive alive — it is still really close.
