No nonstop chow
Unlike other universities, CMU doesn't have a need for continually open cafeterias
by MICHAEL J. LaFLECHE
Mr t- St.iff y".f :,-'
Although CMU's residence hall food cuinmuib do not remain open
continuously like some state universities, une CMl' Food Services official
said the need does not exist
"There are several factors fur it." Hurh We-hh, director of FcxkI Services
said. "Universities make decisions for continuous feeding liecause they don't
have enough space to feed everyone. So they open up for lunger hours in order
to spread the crowd out
"In our situation, our cafeterias arc- large enough to handle a lot of
students."
Continuous food service essentially means the- cafeteria Is open all day
without lieing closed trom hreakt.ist until dinner CMC's five food commons
hay e a halt hour hreak he-tweon hreak last and lutu h. and a tyc o-andhaH-hnur
hreak from the- end of lunch to dinner. Wehh s.(id
Currently, Western Michigan University, Kalama/oo. and F'Tiis State
University, lllg Rapids, utilize the-continuous meal system
At WMU. Ken Bartholomew, a--istant director of Dining Services. ..ml
continual feeding can often mean -chedule flevihility for students
"It makes it much more ennvenu nt tor students to work arimd cli-i*-,"
Bartholomew said   "Three 'cafeteria i units are clo-e to class htiitdmgs !i>i "
