Following National Trends to Limit Food Waste

Following a trend towards becoming a more sustainable campus, dining services is pondering plans to remove trays from the cafeteria. “We want to,” Director of Dining Services Keith Martin said. “Our goal is to change by next semester.” According to Martin, the switch to a tray-less dining hall would reduce waste significantly. “It will reduce waste by as much as 30 percent,” he said. This waste comes from both uneaten food as well as from water and chemicals used to clean trays. Martin believes that without trays, the amount of food students take would decrease greatly.
