A 'fresh' image for The Barn : incorporating local and seasonal foods into campus menus
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Students, staff, and faculty at the University of British Columbia have access to a wide variety of foodstuffs throughout campus because of the food service outlets provided by the Alma Mater Society and UBC Food Services. Most of these food service outlets are representative of the global food system, where economic sustainability is of the utmost consequence, and the importance of social and environmental sustainability is lost. Much of the food on campus has traveled many miles from where it was originally grown, causing negative environmental and social impacts in BC. To improve the sustainability of any food system, there needs to be an increase in the amount of local and seasonal foods represented in it, thereby reversing global trends and accruing positive environmental and social impacts. The goal of Group 8 was to establish the feasibility of integrating local and seasonal foods into UBC Food Service outlets, specifically The Barn Coffee Shop. The Barn was chosen as a demonstration of the possibilities of local and seasonal foods because of several factors: proximity to the Faculty of Land and Food Systems building, its presence on “Sustainability Street,” and the high proportion of staff and faculty patrons. Previous research determined that much of the soil-grown food purchased by UBC Food Services comes from outside of Canada; however, much of this produce is presently being grown within BC. Based on previous years’ research, the availability of seasonal produce was established, and our group devised menu items that incorporated these foodstuffs.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
