We recently started providing reusable take-out trays in addition to Styrofoam. We sell the containers for $3.50 and students use them to take food to go. When they bring it back to the dining hall we give them a clean one. We have sold over 300 containers this semester. Students can still get a Styrofoam take-out container at no charge.
