We propose a change in dining hall hours on Boston University's campus. As of right now, the dining hall is only open until 9 PM on week days. This is a problem for many students as they do not get out of class until 9 PM. We propose that the hours be extended until 10 PM to give students the opportunity to get dinner after class using their meal plan. Also, the dining hall does not open until 10 AM on Sunday mornings. This makes it difficult for students who work or have other commitments in the morning to get breakfast. We propose that the breakfast hours are changed to the normal Saturday hours (starting at 8 AM).
I have been hearing from so many of you who are rushing from night labs only to find the dining hall doors locked. I am currently pulling together a formal proposal for the administration that highlights these specific struggles that we face every day.

Seeing so many of you jump on board hits home because I know exactly how hollow it feels to walk back to my dorm hungry after a long night lab. This momentum proves that I am not the only one struggling to balance my coursework with basic needs. We are finally building the pressure required to actually change these dining policies.

With busy schedules, the extension of dining hall hours would really benefit BU students

my 9pm class makes getting dinner almost impossible so this would be a huge help
