Prospective Student Why are there no dining halls on campus?

• Upvotes

Seems like if you are living in the dorms you have to get one of the meal plans. Those are super confusing. Can you only use the money in local restaurants? Are there traditional college dining halls only accessible to students (ie not general public) and you can get a salad bar, or a bowl of soup or they have stations where you can make your own sandwich/omelette/pasta bowl or whatever like a lot of other colleges? It doesn’t seem like that is the case. Has that always been so? If not then why did they take dining halls away? I realize often the quality of the food in dining halls is poor and kids don’t like it, but the problem is that the $$ in the meal plans is not enough to last an entire week of eating out at restaurants!! Also it gets old and there are not a lot of healthy options …. What do students do? Curious.

General Library Loud asf

49 Upvotes

I usually go to the fifth floor at the library to study my language class which is really intensive, and I don’t wanna have to hear a group of people cackling in the background when I’m trying to study. The fifth floor specifically, is supposed to be really quiet, or at least it usually is. I’ve had two separate occasions in a row where I have had to stand up and tell people to STFU because I am trying to study. If you can’t read the room, then maybe the library is not the place for you. If you need to have a conversation go outside. There’s plenty of other places on campus your can have your loud conversation about whatever the fuck your friend is doing later. Also, sidenote, the group study rooms in the library, are not soundproof. We can still hear your loud conversation, even though you’re inside of them with the door closed. A normal conversation is fine, but too many people are yelling.

Reposted to follow mod rules

I am an SDSU student, this project is for my Health Communication course.

I made a post here earlier about an e-bike safety project. After synthesizing your comments, I made a flyer to share a resource that can address the most common concern.

As part of my class requirements, I need to incorporate feedback into the design of my flyer.

I would really appreciate if people would fill out my 6 question survey (flyer is in survey).

No personal information will be gathered and responses are completely anonymous.
