Does campus dining operations offer discounts to customers who use reusable mugs instead of disposable cups in to-go food service operations?:
Yes

A brief description of the reusable mug program:

In the University coffee house, Common Grounds, there is a discount for anyone that brings in their own reusable mug. This helps both the consumer cut back on their personal waste and the coffee shop economically because they no longer have to pay for one more disposable mug.


Amount of the discount offered for using reusable mugs:
0.10

Description of other reusable food- or beverage-related programs (e.g. incentives for use of reusable bags, dishware, to-go containers):

Reusable dish ware and silverware are used whenever students and staff eat-in at every food service center on campus. Whenever possible, if food is ordered 'to-go', plates and silverware made from recycled materials are used and can be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner.
