Malcolm Gladwell on the role of food in college choice

@Pizzagirl true, but the prices of these full meal plans (like tuition, R/B and everything else college related) is ridiculous. At the current rates and rates of increase, college will soon become unaffordable to most. A big driver of these increases is fancy food service, high end campus improvements etc. I’m all in favor of quality food and believe colleges are responsible for providing that… But there can be good quality affordable food without going to the extreme of both Bowdoin and Vassar. I don’t eat at Capital Grill every night, but do expect the schools to produce good healthy food for my kids… But it doesn’t have to be 5*.
