The Tech wrote about this in November, "Added Costs Aim to Build
Community Dining," by Brian Keegan. See the subheading "No Styrofoam
Policy":
http://www-tech.mit.edu/V125/N55/55dining.html
There was also a letter that ran two issues later, "Stewart Fails As
Community Steward" (referring to McCormick housemaster Prof. Charles
Stewart), by Chieu Nguyen and Edwin Chen:
http://www-tech.mit.edu/V125/N57/57letters.html
I haven't heard much about it since November. I'm particularly curious
how the execution went, and whether people "put up with it."
I have difficulty imaginging how the enforcement of such a policy
would work in the face of determined resistance.
