We work together to continually develop and implement sustainable solutions. Through Green Thread, our environmental sustainability platform, we bring innovative and efficient solutions to life. We are passionately focused on reducing the environmental impact within our operations.
Here are just a few ways we work to make our campus more environmentally conscious:
Local Purchasing
Did you know Dining Services sources food from many local farmers, growers and distributors? The list changes throughout the year depending on seasonality and availability.
Recycling
Dining Services partners with campus to recycle card board and fry oil from all dining locations across campus. We are committed to minimizing our environmental footprint.
Reusables
Take part in our reusable mug program to reduce waste and receive a discount on fountain beverages and coffee in Java City and We Proudly Service Starbucks.
Green Cleaning
All dining locations are committed to using Ecolab green cleaning products in our operations to reduce the need for chemical based cleaning products and provide a healthy and safe learning environment.
Energy & Water Conservation
We train our employees each semester on common energy and water conservation practices in order to conserve precious natural resources.
