Flex Meals Reinstated Only At Parklawn C-Store
It looks like housing and dining finally heard our pleas!!!
As those fortunate enough to have a meal plan last year know, the flex meal system that we knew and loved has been axed for the foreseeable future. In its place, housing and dining introduced these thrifty new dining dollars!!!! Now when hawks buy a meal plan, they get less food for an increased price!! How wholesome!!!
In the olden years of 2024, students with a black or gold meal plan got 75 flex meal swipes, totalling about ~750 dollars worth of food if the student always gets an entree, two sides, and a drink. Now, our precious Mayflower freshmen are forced to buy their black meal plan with a measly 450 dining dollar balance. Not only did the amount of food you got get halved, but the university decided to do the most ingenious move and raise the black meal plan’s price by around 100 dollars!!!!
However, no need to fret. After seeing decreased meal plan sales from returning students, our precious Barbara Wilson graciously allowed the return of flex meals in a more limited capacity. They are slowly being introduced only at the crown jewel of University Dorms: Parklawn Residence Hall. Flex items are now limited to:
-Hot Pockets (Only the Philly Cheesesteak ones)
-Expired Milk (Yogurt)
-Advil
-Walking Tacos (Meat, cheese, and toppings are an extra, non-flex surcharge)
Wowie!!! What a delectable selection of goodies!!! I can’t wait to see how our fellow Hawkheads decide to mix and match this new and improved selection! I can’t wait to see you all on those soon-to-not-be-empty buses to Parklawn Residence Hall.
