| I believe dining halls are closed during fall break and thanksgiving, although RPCC has a Thanksgiving dinner for kids who stay behind.
In the dining world, a week is Thursday to Thursday. In the case of your dining week, it would end the day the dining hall closes. So, on Thursday your account refreshes to 7 meals and you would use them until Saturday (in the case of fall break) and whatever you have left I believe you use on Tuesday/Wednesday (which I think is when the halls reopen). You then refresh to your 7 meals on Thursday.
Sorry if that is confusing! |

| to get a cake, your friends can just go to the swiper person at the front of the dining hall and ask if they can get you a cake. they just use their brbs to pay for it and then pick it up for later | |

| Anyone know of how the "house meal plans" work out on West? For example, the "House Choice" is $2,200/semester and includes $250 in BRBs and fifty additional meals. What they leave out though, is how many meals/week that equates to. If it's comparable to Bear Choice then would it be 10/week?
It does mention on the dining site "unlimited access to meals during designated service periods within the West Campus House System." That can't mean round the clock buffet-style living, or can it? (Transfer 15 anyone?) Dining - House Meal Plans
And for those that live out on West, which meal plan do you suggest?

| I got the Bear traditional. Looks like I'll need to plan out how I use the BRBs so I don't just use it all at once. | |

| I'm a little bit concerned about the Golden Bear meal plan. It seems like a good option, but couldn't Berkeley sue for copyright infringement ???? | |

| Nesquik - if the College of Engineering thought you should have a sense of humor, they would have included it in the required materials list. | |

| It's pretty easy. You just glance through all of your previous posts.
As a Cornell engineer you should be a little bit brighter! | |

| Getting back to topic, I was wondering if we can pay for meals at the all you care to eat halls using BRB's, which I think is about 6 or 7 dollars when I came for Cornell days? If this is the case I'd probably eat two meals a day (which is what I do now anyways) while balancing the number of meals I have with the amount of BRB's left. Do students pay for all you care to eat meals with BRB's? | |
