We have lost massive amounts of plates, glasses, silverware, bowls and coffee cups over the past several months. We would ask that everyone remember that the meal plan is all you care to eat while you are in the dining room and does not allow for food to be carried out when you leave.
If you have any of our dishware in your dorm rooms or offices, we would really appreciate it if you could bring it back to us. There is a cart outside the dish room where you can leave any dishes you may have or that you find laying around on campus. Thank you for helping us out!
