  Experience

  I teach at a K-12 private school in Georgia.  In response to the drought last year, we, too, went "tray-free."  Trays are still available to those who need them (helpful for students with crutches, wheelchairs, etc. or small kindergarten hands), but students are encouraged to go tray-free.

  I was skeptical at first, as were many students.  And many negative comments flew around for the first few months (though not nearly as negative as, say, those made by KAPPS, but still...).  Now, though, it's become the norm and I find that students still get plenty to eat with less garbage on their plates.  So -- good choice, colleges.  I ate too much in college and still wasted food, so I know it's possible!On Colleges forgo cafeteria trays to save water and energy posted 1 year, 3 months ago 11 Responses
