Bearcat Dining: Feedback in Action
Bearcat Dining: Feedback in Action
Bearcat Dining community,
We want to begin by acknowledging that we fell short in several areas at the start of the semester. We heard concerns from students and the campus community regarding pricing communication, consistency, kosher variety and availability, portion standards, and overall service experience. We take this feedback seriously and recognize the frustration these issues have caused.
Thank you to everyone who has shared their experiences with us. Your feedback has helped us identify where improvements are needed, and we are committed to taking meaningful action to address these concerns and improve the dining experience for all students.
You spoke. We're listening. Making improvements.
- NEW value at the dining halls: Strengthening your meal plan value by providing all meal plan holders with a 15% Dining Dollar discount at all our dining halls. (Excluding retail items)
- Defined pricing: Updating digital menu screens to ensure pricing is accurate, current, and clearly communicated to students.
- Standardized portions: Right-sizing portion standards across dining halls to meet student expectations.
- Revamping menu at Kosher Kitchen and adding comfort food to C4 Dinner: Increasing food production at the Kosher Kitchen station and adding another comfort food station to expand C4鈥檚 dinner offerings.
- Grubhub service times: Improving speed of service to reduce student waiting times and create a more efficient and consistent ordering experience.
- Ongoing feedback and continuous improvement: We will continue to leverage student and campus feedback throughout the semester to identify opportunities, respond quickly, and continuously enhance the dining experience.
Thank you for helping us make Bearcat Dining better; your feedback helps shape the experience.For More Information:
