BC Dining’s Fresh Initiatives Support Sustainability

Many of life’s best moments happen in the presence of food. Relationships are formed over coffee, important deals are closed at dinner, and friendships are forged while gathering for post-lecture lunches. The wall of McElroy dining hall says it best when quoting Virginia Woolf: “One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.” The quality, sourcing, and sustainability of the food with which we nourish ourselves are well worth our consideration. It is for these reasons that Boston College Dining is making the concerted effort to improve the eco-friendly quality of campus dining halls, as well as the food being prepared behind its counters.
