Yes
None
A brief description of the reusable to-go container program:
As of 2010, each student on the Mandatory Residential Meal Plan receives one Eco-Clamshell at the beginning of the academic year. The Eco-Clamshell is used by students and then returned to be sanitized in a high heat industrial dishwasher; at the end of the its lifetime, the container is retired to a recycling facility.
At the same time, McGill also offers china services in residence dining halls, polystyrene cups have been phased out across campus, and aluminum takeout containers have replaced polystyrene takeout containers when takeout containers are requested over the Eco-Clamshell option. Any takeout container besides the Eco-Clamshell is charged $0.40 at the cash.
