trays
A traymendous phenomena
Apparently, we are not the only school going “trayless.“ According to an article from insidehighered.com schools like Colby and Alfred (a university in New York) are experimenting dining sans tray. This movement has led to reductions of up to one-third of waste produced in a given day. Here’s the thing; I don’t care. I really like trays and I don’t agree with this hypothesis because instead of creating less waste, I am actually just forced to get more plates and then I am so resentful that I leave them on that table near the waffle station because I have a noon class on Tuesday/Thursday and the line is too long. So maybe we have a trade off between more manual labor and less waste. I’m not going to consider this point further. Instead, I am just going to continue to be bitter and ask that my conservative university quit trying to pretend that we do more than recycle.
