We’ve all seen somebody go the dining hall, pile up their tray with four plates of food, and then throw half of it away. If there weren’t trays, students would make better decisions about what they were actually going to eat and take only as much as they need.

When Bon Appetit met with CSA at the beginning of the year, they said the would be in favor of going trayless. The only roadblock to the proposition is fear of student backlash.

This friday when you go to lunch and see there are no trays, just think about all the food the college is saving and tell your friends to quit complaining.
