All students residing in College residence halls are required to be on one of three meal plans:

1. A 20-meal plan, three meals per day, with the exception of the Sunday evening meal is available to all students.
2. A 14-meal plan with $100 bonus bucks per semester is available to sophomores, juniors, seniors and non-resident students. It consists of 14 meals per week, at the option of the subscriber.
3. A 10-meal plan with $25 bonus bucks per semester is available to juniors, seniors and non-resident students. It consists of 10 meals per week, at the option of the subscriber.

• Meals are provided under these plans only when residence halls are officially opened.
• Special dinners, premium nights, holiday specials, etc. are available to students who subscribe to a meal plan. Meals can also be purchased on a cash basis by students, faculty, and staff.
• The Food Service Committee consists of students and staff members who oversee the quality of food options and the quality of service provided. The Committee meets biweekly and is receptive to suggestions and concerns regarding dining services.
• Meal tickets are available to commuter students, faculty and staff at 10 percent savings on cafeteria meals and The Oaks snack bar purchases. Food tickets may be purchased in The Oaks. Tickets are not transferable. Faculty, staff, students and guests may also obtain meals on a cash basis.
• Class or work schedule conflicts, and other difficulties related to dining service hours should be discussed with the director of dining services so alternative dining arrangements can be made.
• The director of dining services and the director of health services work with students, their parents, and their physicians if necessary, to plan meals which meet specific dietary needs.
  

Exemptions: The director of health services may grant meal plan exceptions for medical reasons. Applications for exemptions may be obtained from the Office of Health Services. Students involved in field experience or students teaching or who are involved in other academically related programs may petition through the Office of Health Services for exemption from food plan during the period of that experience. Students involved in an off-campus class for all or part of January session may obtain applications for exemption from meal plans through their respective professor and/or the Office of Academic Affairs.
