Remarks FAILED - President Spaniolo recommended in a memo dated September 20, 2004 that students "deposit money on their MavExpress cards" as "ARAMARK estimates the cost of an 80 meal plan at $6.50-$7.00 per meal".
Whereas University Housing and Residential Dining Services encourage Students to purchase a meal plan to be used at Connections Caf' each semester; and
Whereas Each meal plan for the spring and fall semesters provides for an allotment of 160-280 meals per semester; and
Whereas There is a large population of students attending school during the lunch hours or dinner hours; and
Whereas These students may like to eat a meal other than what is offered in the Food Court; and
Whereas In order to eat in the Connections Caf' during that time you must pay each time you go.
Be It Further Resolved That University Housing and Residential Dining Services create a meal plan that would give students one meal a day, Monday through Friday, for a total of 80 meals a semester; and
Be It Further Resolved That This meal be allowed to be used for one breakfast, lunch, or dinner a day for use at the Connections Caf'.
