Does the institution have a trayless dining program in which trays are removed from or not available in dining halls?:
A brief description of the trayless dining program:
Princeton Dining Services has adopted a "tray-free" dining policy (providing larger plates and glasses and eliminating trays), endorsed by the Princeton Sustainability Committee, and has successfully implemented the program in all six residential dining halls, as well as the Center for Jewish Life and the Graduate College. For all dining halls, tray-free dining has the potential to reduce water and energy costs by $4,000 per year, save up to 1.2 percent on food purchases, reduce food waste by up to 30 percent and avoid more than 23 metric tons of CO2 emissions.
