ORONO, Maine – UMO is the flagship and is often a role model to the other universities. This is mainly because of its large enrollment, clubs and activities. By researching the Maine state university recycling programs it showed very little progress compared to UMO.

Every university, including Augusta, Farmington and Southern Maine, all wanted a bigger program but couldn’t afford it. They all confessed that UMO had more funding which is why the program has more to offer.
Smaller universities do have programs which entail having recycling bins in every building and dorm. Recycling programs try to make it as convenient as possible for students and staff.
