A brief description of the innovative policy, practice, program, or outcome:

None
A brief description of any positive measurable outcomes associated with the innovation (if not reported above):
The green dishware was purchased in the 2014 -2015 school year, but only advertised to the Pitzer community in the spring semester. In that semester, the dishware was checked out eight times.
