Press: Then this hasn't af­ fected, say, your buying of a lower grade of meat?

Al: Oh no. We don't look for anything* like that. Everything w6 buy is top quality.

Press: With these rising food prices, do you see the cost of a meal contract and per meal prices going up as food prices go up?

Al: What we try to do is this We try to make no money off the students' contract, but we do encourage the outside business which offsets some of the losses that we might make if we didn't have that.

Press: Then you see keeping meal contract prices the same and raising the per meal prices?

Al: Yes...but I can't say tKat we'll keep the prices the same next year...but we try to hold it as low as we can. In comparison with other colleges, I'd say we're close to two hundred dollars under.

An entertainment budget is set up for this purpose, to which the cost of food, labor, etc., are charged. As to the use of the Re­ fectory, present policy sets up three criteria for its use: 1. That RISD students, facul­ ty, alumnae, and administra­ tion come first, 2. It is used for other schools and organizations which large percentage of RISD students, faculty, and staff are asso­ ciated with, 3. Organizations that are non-political, non­ profit where faculty and staff have an interest. The school tries to avoid poli­ tical organizations and or­ ganizations which are profit making, individually oriented, and/or have paid political lobby.
