Yes

A brief description of the trayless dining program:

UH Dining Services removed trays from dining locations on campus in an effort to support environmental stewardship. Tray-less dining reduces an institution’s environmental footprint by decreasing waste and conserving water and energy. University of Houston decided to ‘go tray-less’ as a result of research, conducted by ARAMARK, University of Houston's dining provider, which presents a sound business case for the removal of trays and indicates that customers are ready to accept tray-less dining.
