Georgetown Dining Survey! Please Participate!

You all should probably have just gotten an email from Georgetown Dining with a link to a survey. We STRONGLY encourage you to take this survey to help G-Town Dining determine what they can do to improve your eating needs on campus. It doesn't take too long, but can if you write a super long comment like I did.

I have included below my responses to the generalized Leo's quality section, as well as my lengthy comment raving against At Home no longer being self-serve.



"The new policy this year of having employees serve each student's food at the "At Home" station is extremely inefficient and unsatisfactory. College students need to be able to decide how much they want to eat, and need to be able to get food very quickly. At peak eating times, the line is unbearable, and students are not even able to serve their own food while a staff member is retrieving another pan. The At Home station is supposed to be entirely pre-made food that is easy to get on a plate quickly, and having staff members serve it is extremely detrimental to the dining experience. If cleanliness is a concern, it is certainly more efficient to have one staff member watching the station frequently to clean up any messes than to have two constantly occupied by serving food. The other unoccupied staff member could then aid in refilling pans of food in a more timely manner. If the concern is about controlling portions: Students pay for an all-you-can eat meal plan, and should be able to take as much as they wish without getting back in line multiple times (assuming of course that they eat it all). Thank you for your considerations."
