What's Your Opinion?

The Student Assembly will hold a multi-issue referendum at lunch and dinner this Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, and has compiled the following on several of those issues.

Do you feel there is a need for increased hours in the undergraduate libraries?

The cost of keeping a library open longer might be added to students' term bills.

Alternate Meal Plans

Would you like food services to try a 21-meal-14-meal [no breakfast] plan on an experimental, evaluative basis for a peiod of one school year?

Yes

1. Savings: Students who choose 14 meal meals would save money--either $35 or $72 (these are only estimates), depending on which of the two types of 21-14 meal plans was implemeted.

2. Dining hall workers would not be affected during the experiment because all savings would come from the cost of food not purchased.

3. Collecting data: A one year experiment with a 21-14 meal option would allow the food services to evaluate the administrative and financial aspects of food plans in a working situation; this information could be used to provide better, more flexible services to students in the future.

4. House life: Breakfasts are the least attended meals in the houses; a no breakfast option would probably have little adverse effect on house life.

5. Students on the 14 meal plan could buy a small number of breakfasts each semester and still save some money.

No

1. Costs: Students who remained with 21 meals might have to pay more than they do under the present system. Under on of the two types of 21-14 meal plans, students choosing 21 meals would pay approximately $60 more in board charges. Under the other 21-14 meal system the board charge for 21 meals would remain the same.
