Meal Plan

Your meal plan will be activated on your ID card. Just swipe your ID whenyou want to eat...no need to pull out a debit or credit card; or even to carry cash. And who wants to have to cook to bring their lunch all the time?? You have enough on your schedule as it is! Let US cook for you!! With the economy the way it is; you need to be as frugal as possible with every penny! The price per meal you will find with a meal plan is often better than the price per meal at some fast food restaurants. Plus, you don't pay tax on food covered under your meal plan.
