A new meal plan, the Block Plus Flex Plan will be offered to new and returning residents for the fall semester. The plan consists of 160 meals per semester(which is around 9 meals a week) and $100 flex dollars which would be considered the same as Beach Club dollars and can be used at all locations on and off campus that accept Beach Club.
As of March 31st, of the 1,507 students who have applied for Housing, 518 selected 10 meals, 317 selected Block, 603 selected 19 and 69 haven’t selected yet, according to Carol Roberts-Corb the director of Housing and Residential Life. Roberts-Corb believes the meal plan is ideal for students “that want to eat on campus sometimes or go home frequently. “
The most common meal plan to be selected is the 19 meal plan. Freshman Breanna Pruett who selected the 19 meal plan said, “ The new meal plan is BS. $100 bucks! That will down the drain in a week!”
Other students such as Freshman Kirsten Ratcliff say the plan would be better for students who live closer to home.
“Even though people live at the dorms, at least half of them go away for the weekend. This will be a commuter school no matter what and this plans will work for the kind of residents that live here.”
