There was a definite shift in the meal plan concept after I graduated. Our meal plans were:
20 meals a week
13 meals a week (no breakfast)
The cafeteria was closed for Sunday dinner so Sunday was Domino's night. $5 and you got a large with one topping and a cardboard carton of Coke. I don't know how Dominos kept up, honestly. We could substitute a dinner at the tiny lil fast food place/convenience store) by using your meal card, but there was a dollar amount limit. It was enough for nachos though, which is what I got when I did that. The food was mediocre and really unhealthy, but nobody cared about healthy eating back then..lol. The desserts were first in the line. You stood there staring at the desserts while you waited in line for the hot food. On rice krispies treat day, boys were seen with as many as 10 of them on their tray. There were basically two entrees, and a few sides to pick from and it was typical American food.. roast beef, meatloaf, baked chicken, spaghetti, etc. There was a huge, nicely stocked salad bar always.
