Bottled water v. Tap water

On Doane campus, it's a common thing to see students walking around with bottled water; it's quick to grab, it's easy to carry, and it's better than tap water...right?

Maybe not. Over the past few years, more information has come to light regarding bottled water. It turns out that in some cases, tap water can be better for you than bottled, and some companies (such as Coca-Cola) started to simply put purified tap water in their bottles of water.

Tiger Inn and Common Grounds are two places on campus where it's easy to grab a bottle of water when you're on the go, but just because it's easy to grab, that doesn't necessarily make it good for you.

What are your opinions on the bottled water v. tap water debate? Leave a comment and let me know!
