OXFORD, Miss. – The University of Mississippi’s Office of Sustainability is seeking faculty, staff and community member volunteers to help sort recyclables collected from this year’s Egg Bowl as part of the Green Grove Gameday Recycling Program.
The Office of Sustainability ships Solo cups to TerraCycle for recycling, while the other items are processed through the Oxford Recycling Center.
Musicians may bring any old instrument strings to be recycled and have their electric or acoustic guitars restrung with D' Addario NYXL or Nickel Bronze Acoustic strings. Strings collected during the event will be recycled through Playback, a national recycling program.
Playback is the world’s first instrument string recycling program, launched through a partnership between D’Addario and international recycling company TerraCycle.
TerraCycle® is an innovative recycling company that has become a global leader in recycling hard-to-recycle waste.

"Actually, it was during my very first meeting with Garnier that they mentioned their work with UNICEF, and that, to me, stood out from the pack. Being able to use my platform to support their commitment to UNICEF, in ways that go beyond products — because the brand's core values of taking care of the next generation, the future generation — is a very, very important thing. I'm also a big animal advocate, so I love the work the
Animal League does and the
ASPCA, so anything that's environmentally leaning like
TerraCycle, another organization that I've worked with Garnier on a campaign around recycling."
At the end of the competition, Legg had collected more than 5,000 beauty and personal care containers, topping college competitors on 50 campuses to win Garnier’s Rinse, Recycle, Repeat: College Competition, created in partnership with TerraCycle and
