All eight of our residential dining units (Whitney, Buckley, South, McMahon, Putnam, Northwest, North & Gelfenbien) are Certified Green Restaurant®. What does Certified Green Restaurant® mean? The purpose of the GRA standards is to provide a transparent way to measure each restaurant’s environmental accomplishments while providing a pathway for the next steps each restaurant can take towards increased environmental sustainability.

The seven environmental categories

1. Water Efficiency
2. Waste Reduction and Recycling
3. Sustainable Durable Goods & Building Materials
4. Sustainable Food
5. Energy
6. Reusable & Environmentally Preferable Disposables
7. Chemical and Pollution Reduction
