Yes, there are 50 or 60 restaurants where you can eat using your Colonial Cash card, but at each one you need to evaluate the price of each item you buy, except for the “full plate” thing, where you can pay for a semester of 3 meals a week for $375 or 6 meals a week for $699. Do Freshmen have to put $3400 on the card and if you opt for the the full plate thing, would it be, say $2701 regular colonial cash and $699 full plate thing?

There are fast food places on campus and some fancy restaurants near campus on the list, and I recognize that you can use your colonial cash for books and ipods - I am trying to figure out the food service. I cut and pasted the list of available restaurants below. No where where you can just sit down and take whatever you want from a salad bar or help yourself to fruit or to soft serve - traditional college dining hall stuff, from which it is quite possible to put together healthy meals. The full plate thing sounds good but I don’t really understand it in the context of the annual amounts one puts into colonial cash.
