lmao
fire whoever runs your food services
Oh you know what spooky I think the idea is meals cost what they cost, and they take it out of your account. So you do not get a set amount of meals a week
you have a set amount of money you can buy weakly meals with
Yeah anyways on campus living is retarded
why would you ever buy a mealplan though
no reason too. Just live off of harveys
thats what I do
when I need to eat on campus
the whole concept, is you pre-pay for swipes/meals
and there's some savings realized over buying them al la cart
but it's always more expensive then cooking yourself
so cost is probably higher
yeah, that feels in-line with American colleges too
meals are usually <$10
"The RMPA Lite (smallest plan) costs $2305 of which $1180 is deducted for overhead. Leaving you with $1125 on your watcard designated for meals."
so you are paying them to be able to spend half the money
this is from 3 years ago
this system man
just why
Virginia colleges all make so much more sense
I agree that this is retarded
I am obviously not going to UW for its food
this is VCU
you do not get to serve yourself breakfast
they just give you things
lmao
iis that due to Corona?
your school sucks
Most people live in the shitty apartments near campus
most people do not live on campus
how can they fuck up the easiest thing
yeah, but if you're on campus for class
do you not eat on-campus?
people eat at the plaza next to campus mostly
which is full of chinese food places (and harveys pog)
I assume you have dining halls or partnered resturants
we had a pub
it closed down because it went under
well, maybe not
since apparently you don't even have a normal meal plan
residences might have dining hall for people who live there
none for general students
I don't think I've ever seen a college do food like UW, other than really small schools
that don't have the resources to run a dining facility
spooky you know what it is, its a way to nickle and dime the chinese
since they will pay for it
the non retard canadian students either live at home or off campus
true
anyways all the residence buildings are off to the side and I never go near them
so I don't know how shit they are
they are the opposite way from the plaza where sane people go to get food
I pay like 15 bucks and I get a nice angus burger and some fries and a drink
and if you want food, the math building has a general store
I just go there to buy my chocolate milks
so what most American universities do, is all food within walking distance of campus, 1-2 blocks in all directions, is school owned or partnered
when I want one of those
yeah thats not how it is here
so everything is part of the same dining charter
the on-on campus stuff is partnered
hence why we have 4 tim hortons
even normal restaurants like Tim Hortons or Chick fil A
I miss the pub, not like I drank when I went there but it was a place to get a meal between lectures with the lads
but it was so in the red that they just took it out back and shot it
American schools have really been focusing on their food, so it's gotten pretty good no matter where you go
but again, it's just getting people to rack up their debt
because they're essentially eating out 2-3 times per day
welp, enjoy $8M of our tax dollars
why would you ever pay 8k to live on campus when you could get a 1 bedroom for 800 a month
all these sites with off campus housing
require me to login
this is so gay
