Comments on: Eat a late-night snack, and then enter a raffle http://www.studlife.com/news/2010/02/05/eat-a-late-night-snack-and-then-enter-a-raffle/ The independent newspaper of Washington University in St. Louis Sun, 12 Feb 2012 04:19:43 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Jack S http://www.studlife.com/news/2010/02/05/eat-a-late-night-snack-and-then-enter-a-raffle/#comment-6816 Jack S Wed, 17 Feb 2010 15:57:19 +0000 http://www.studlife.com/?p=9112#comment-6816 The pilot program will last longer than the raffle. Besides, as a student I'd love to give Bon Appetit a false sense of security. It's very disheartening that food on campus is run to support a business instead of to support the students. Students are not always able to plan their lives around the majority of people and therefore get left out with very few options for food. I understand that Bon Appetit needs to make money to survive, but if the University wants to have a catering service make their food, that doesn't relieve them (the University) of the responsibility of serving students first. Therefore, I think WU should subsidize Bon Appetit in order to allow longer hours for all locations. The pilot program will last longer than the raffle.
