Catherwood has announced a proposed 5 per cent rate increase in board for the next fiscal year in order that the University board plan remain unchanged. At a meeting with the directors of the Macke Corporation, Vice-President for Administrative Services Daniel Altobello asked that cutbacks in the present program be investigated to eliminate the proposed increase. The suggested cutbacks were presented to Catherwood Wednesday morning. They include: • steak every other week • no ice cream at lunch • pies at dinner three times per week • no meat at breakfast • serve brunch with both breakfast and lunch foods on Saturday and Sunday in place of both breakfast and lunch. The 5 per cent increase is a result of a projected 10 per cent increase in labor and a 10-12 The University is currently seeking ways to avoid increasing student board rates by per cent increase in food costs.
