The University of Vermont will stop selling bottled water by early 2013 after a student-led movement to increase sustainability on campus, The Chronicle of Higher Education reported. UVM has joined a small but steadily increasing number of colleges and universities that have elected to stop bottled water sales in favor of constructing bottle-filling stations, according to The Chronicle. The university will not renew its contract with Coca-Cola, which sells about 1.1 million bottled beverages at UVM each year. Coca-Cola previously had exclusive rights to sell bottled drinks on campus, but campus venues will now select beverages through "national contracts and local connections" that pay greater attention to environmental and social concerns, according to The Chronicle. UVM will lose about $500,000 in financial aid, athletic and general program funds as a result of ending its contract with Coca-Cola, according to The Chronicle.
