Where does college food come from?

Going "green" and an increased emphasis on sustainability have become major issues in society in general but on college campuses in particular. When I discuss with students what they are looking for in a college, this issue of sustainability has started being mentioned. For students interested in this issue there is an article at Inside Higher Ed talking about what some colleges are doing in the realm of buying food locally.

Each student is different in their wants and needs for the right college. Whether the sustainability issue is important for you or not in choosing a college, it is important for you to determine what your needs are and to find the right college for you. And just for the record, I think more students should be considering how a college addresses sustainability issues in their search for a college.
