Stop requiring MCAD residents to purchase $600 cafe cards

I stand behind your desire to eat healthy! Good for you!

This kind of thing should be OPTIONAL !!!

Hope this helps bro

Good petition

Thanks

I literally cannot afford this lmao

Just saying, several students are considering actually dropping out because of this. THIS SHOULD BE OPTIONAL. - Cooper

The least they could do is offer you the option to purchase a food plan or not, what's the point of having a fully stocked kitchen if you can't use it. I understand that they're trying to provide somewhere for students to be able to get food especially for people that have a difficult time cooking for themselves or in a in a spot where they are too stressed to cook, but I shouldn't extend to the rest of the students

I literally cant afford this

Yoooooooooooo why's that a good idea??

I get that they need money, but come on...

Yeah this is a bad idea my guy. Why? There's genuinely no need for a *required* meal plan, besides if the institution just needs fast cash to keep the bistro running. And a $600 required amount at that? What?

I don’t even eat the food from the school anyway.

This is ridiculous. Unless your goal is to reduce the number of students since it is going to cause added stress with the increase in costs to an already expensive college!

This is absolutely ridiculous. It should be a CHOICE as MCAD has on campus apartments with fully functioning kitchens. This is another unevessary expense added on to an already expensive college!

This is extremely

Ridiculous. MCAD’s cafeteria is tiny and all of the dorms have fully functioning kitchens. As someone with food allergies, I can’t even eat in the bistro. There’s no reason this should be mandatory.

stop trying to overcharge students for your failing bistro like wtf

As a parent, we have put money in the food account for our student for an occasional convenience. Does the data of on campus college students really justify that amount of money? I woukd be okay with a $100 /semester requirement or at leadt extended hours for the Bistro.

Universities are now only for profit, they don't care about your future. This should be a first step for students take control of their education.
