Browsing: meal plans

Late Night is only available from 8 p.m. to midnight Monday through Thursday at the Penland Crossroads. I think expanding Late Night should be a high priority for the university.

In order for the university to uphold its commitment to respecting all people, that would mean providing dietary accommodations for practicing Muslim first-year students specifically, since they are required to purchase a meal plan. These students deserve to feel comfortable eating on campus without fear that they are going against their religious beliefs by doing so.

Even though I’m an off-campus student, I still need to eat. I buy a meal plan so I don’t have to worry about packing a lunch, there’s no money coming out of my pocket and I can maintain ties to campus life.
