Ms. West reported on the meeting that was held on March 20 at which Mr.
Curtis Stancil (DAKA manager) attended. Most significant was that the
contract meal allowance in the Devils Den now reflects more choices that
comprise a meal not the previous $2.50 limit.
MOTION (S. Lamont/T. Kiernan) That the responsibilities of the
food ad hoc committee be moved to the domain of the Student Services
Committee.
Discussion: One final motion had the ad hoc committee responsibilities
moved to the House Committee. After some discussion, a friendly amendment
was proposed by Mr. Moylan; this became the motion. The Board felt that
these responsibilities should be ongoing and appropriately part of a
standing committee.
Motion passed (11 approved, 0 against, 0 abstained) (SUBOG 97-10)
