Ozzi Forgiveness Project
Ozzis are reusable to-go containers available to all students free of charge during their freshman year. Because of various issues, students are opting to take plates from the dining hall instead of Ozzis. To encourage the use of the reusable containers, I am starting the Ozzi Forgiveness Project. I requested funding from the Green Fee Fund to support the purchase of 50 Ozzis. These Ozzis will be available for students to request via survey, to receive free of charge.
