This is a petition to get the University to open Mrs E's at 8am on weekends, and until 10pm on week days.
As a student living in McCollum Residence Hall on Daisy Hill at KU I was required to purchase a meal plan, at great expense, for the student dining facilities. Since there is no place within our halls to cook we are required to eat all our meals at Mrs E's.
HOWEVER, Mrs E's closes every evening at 7:30pm, a time that many people would not even consider starting dinner, and only opens at the weekend at 11am, which is well beyond the time many people wish to go for breakfast.
Many of the students living on Daisy Hill also have classes that finish late, in some cases much later than 7:30.
These opening times are ludicrously short, especially since this is the only place available to eat on our meal plans. This is a petition to get the University to open Mrs E's at 8am on weekends, and until 10pm on week days!
I have spent the last few nights talking to neighbors who are tired of going to bed hungry after late labs. Your stories confirm that this isn't just about convenience because it is about being able to eat after a long day of work.

Seeing this kind of movement confirms that I am not the only one feeling the sting of these restricted hours after a long day of classes. It means so much to know my neighbors in the halls are behind this effort to finally have a reliable place to eat.

7:30 is way too early to close. I have a lab that goes until 8 almost every night and I end up having to pay for ramen because nothing else is open.

LITERALLY starving whenever I get back from practice. It makes no sense to force us into a meal plan and then close the kitchen before dinner time.

Please. I just want breakfast on a Saturday before noon. Is that too much to ask for when we pay this much?

Living on the hill is hard enough without the dining hall closing before I even finish my homework. Change these hours.

Ridiculous. We already paid for the food. Let us actually eat it.
