Does campus dining operations provide reusable containers for to-go food that are returned for cleaning and reuse?:
A brief description of the reusable to-go container program:
Students can make a one-time five dollar payment to receive a plastic to-go container. The containers are sanitized upon return. Students may sign out a new container every time they return their used container. If they do not wish to get a new container the next time they go to the dining hall, they will receive a key tag voucher which will allow them to get a container the next time they want one.
