Waste Audits performed routinely by MIT students and staff show the progress on waste diversion. Through educational initiatives and infrastructure improvements made by the Recycling Office, MIT now has 23 food waste collection points on campus. MIT's design out waste goal includes increasing the volume of food waste diverted from the disposal. The goal is to have food waste collection in all undergraduate dormitories by 2026.
