This recyclable dishware movement came about in part from an Environmental Task Force at the College. Comprised of students, staff and faculty, the team promotes responsible sustainable practices at the College through educational programs and building initiatives.
“We are very excited to be making this change for the good of our environment,” said Anthony Condo, SAGE Dining Food Service Director. “Reducing our use of paper goods will not only help save the environment, but also help us save money, allowing us to improve the student dining experience.” A limited amount of paper products are available for students to make meals “to go”.
Emma Moore, a senior art education major appreciates the College’s initiative to help protect the environment: “I can’t help but think of all the paper plates and dishes I’ve thrown out over the years…They’ve made a lot of positive changes in the cafeteria.”
Great way to set an example Moore! Hope they continue their eco-friendly fashion shows again, too.
