Dining halls switch to reusable to-go boxes
Ohio State students looking to take food on the go now have a greener option, in all senses of the word.

Dave Isaacs, spokesperson for the Office of Student Life, said Ohio State has been planning this shift to sustainability for a few years after testing them on a smaller scale last semester.
