Meal Cards

Selection of a Campus Dining Services Meal Plan entitles you to a Meal Card, which allows you purchasing power equivalent to the plan you have selected.  Here is how it works: You must bring your Student ID each time you enter the resident dining area.  The card has a magnetic strip on it which will be scanned into our meal plan system.  Each scan will deduct a meal from it, and the reader will tell how many meals are left for the week.  The “week” runs from Friday-Thursday. 

Lost or stolen Meal Cards must be replaced.  Should this happen to you… you must go to DPS to have another one made for you. 

You never have to be too shy to ask for seconds with our Campus Dining Program.  Our generous policy allows for a second helping of many menu favorites.  All you have to do is ask!  Please note, however, that there are some exceptions to our Seconds Policy including: always return to the bar and get a fresh plate.  Seconds are not allowed for our Gourmet menu items.  For example if the menu is Ribeye Steaks with fried shrimp, a ticket will be given to you at the time you swipe the card.  You must give the ticket to the manager or supervisor

One of our main goals is to provide a pleasant, clean, comfortable and satisfying dining experience. In order to meet this goal, we ask for your assistance with the following procedures:

• Please bus your tray and disposables from your table when you have finished dining
• Please refrain from taking food, dishes or utensils from the dining area.
• Remember that Meal Cards are non-transferable.  Meal cards cannot be used by anyone but the purchaser.
