Abstract
This study examines the state of food sustainability at WPI. After defining the concept of food sustainability, we analyzed the sustainability of the food system on-campus and among off-campus Greek houses and how improvements could be made to increase sustainability. Using interviews and a community-wide survey, we have identified possible initiatives that could be applied on and off campus to help increase food sustainability through education and increasing local food options.
