Changes

''n.'' A CUPPS cup is a plastic thermos, one of which is given to each Williams freshman during [[first days]] to discourage use of disposable cups. Use of the CUPPS cup is welcomed at [[dining halls]], local [[coffee]] shops, and many progressive establishments around the country, some of which even give a small discount for their use. CUPPS is pronounced identical to "cups" and stands for "can't use paper, plastic, or styrofoam."

There is a yearly contest among students to design the decorations of next year's Williams CUPPS cup.
