It sounds like a freshman is supposed to put $3400 on a debit card and use it at the fast food restaurants on campus - doesn’t sound too healthy - but now there is this “full plate” thing that lets you go to an all you can eat nicecafeteria with healthier food for 3 meals a week for $375 or 6 meals a week for $699; do they subtract this from the $3400? How does this work?

Being able to go sit in a nice place and eat whatevery you want without evaluating the price of everything sounds good. More like a traditional college meal plan.
