On top of the expensive C- ;e prices, many students on campus have com- ried about the price of the food in the cafete- Themed meals often cost anywhere from $6 to per plate, with additional items costing even re (a small salad is $2.39, a 6 oz. ladle of soup is )8, and most deserts are $3-$5 each). Students living on campus will be here for >roximateiy 112 days. They buy a meal plan t provides them with roughly $2057 to spend food per semester. On average, that gives a stu- it $20 a day for meals. Many students ponder following question: is that enough? Gerard Short, general manager of Dining Ser- 2s, addressed this and other questions concern- the Rollins meal plan. First, he stated that the al plan is only designed for 15 meals a week, jy found that the majority of students go home ?at off campus on the weekends and leave for aks, making 15 the average number of meals a dent will eat on campus. But is it still possible ive off of this olan if you are On campus all time? Short answers yes, on the basis that the dent smartly budgets. 1 "here are cheaper alter- ives like The Grille and Diane's Cafe that are ilable to everyone. Students also wonder: why does the Rollins n differ from many other food plans across country? Many other colleges have all-you^ i-eat plans, including the University of Central rida, whose seven-day-a-week, all-you-can eat n costs only $1700, a significantly less amount money dedicated to food when compared to Rollins meal plan. Why is there such a differ- :e in price? Short provided two reasons for the declining ance plan: first, it builds community by allow- ; anyone in the cafeteria, not just people who i pay at the door; second, because of feedback m students. Dining Services has sent several us groups to other colleges' all-you-can eat )grams and has received an overwhelmingly ^ative response from students. Students have consistently stated that they -fer quality over quantity. The quality of food the cafeteria is going to cost more money than ter colleges because they do not have the same ;h quality that can be found at Rollins. Many ter colleges do not have sushi, while Rollins o serves salmon and lobster bisque, both un- ird of college foods. Going back to last issue's campus food de- :e, if quality costs more, then why is it that the Store products are more expensive compared 7-Eleven or Wal-Mart when they all sell the ex- Do You Know Where Your Tuition Goes? same product? Why is there a price difference Julia Campbell Additionally, Facilities has the following two main­ ;re? The Sandspur tenance funds: the operating fund and the capital fund. Again, the answer is surprisingly simple and The operating fund is set aside for what is already expect­ jical. While the C-Store may only be able to buy Over the years, students have played the game of ed for the school year, including the constant upkeep of e crate of Ketchup from Heinz throughout a guessing how much landscaping costs the school.

  • Competition Drives Rent up Bills Propose Earlier Start to NC School Calendars the Bills Would Afford Individual Districts More Flexibility
    Serving UNC students and the University community since 1893 Volume 125, Issue 22 dailytarheel.com Thursday, April 6, 2017 Competition drives rent up Bills propose earlier start to NC school calendars The bills would afford individual districts more flexibility. By Natalie Short Staff Writer Two bills introduced in the N.C. legisla- ture might provide more flexibility for pub- lic school districts’ calendars. Filed in mid-March, the bills would allow schools to opt to start their school calendars earlier in August. Currently, state public schools cannot start their school year before the Monday closest to Aug. 26, and they cannot end later than the Friday closest to June 11.
