This, for now, is the lead story on the Courant:
UConn Will Discontinue The Use Of Cafeteria Trays
Clearly there is no more important news in Connecticut than this.
The idea is to cut down on the half-eaten rolls, uneaten desserts, un-drunk sodas and other goodies students piled on their trays in the buffet line and then realize they are too full to eat.
Besides eliminating wasted food, UConn predicts trayless dining will have the side benefit of keeping a lid on food costs and reducing the amount of water used to wash the trays.
