A brief description of the pre-consumer food waste composting program:
Sodexo has implemented LeanPath waste management tool where pre-consumer waste is weighed and disposed of separately. This is the first step on the way to implementing the composting program. We are remodeling the building once the bookstore moves out leaving a larger area on the loading dock to procure a small in vessel compost machine. With our new dining vendor, Sodexo, we hope to acquire this in 2013.
