<p>I totally disagree and I believe that the unlimited meal plan definitely has its benefits. Similar to valet parking your vehicle and paying an added “convenience” fee, as in the meal plan, the benefits may outweigh the added expenses. Having immediate access to your food, without having to purchase, prepare and clean-up after yourself, in my opinion, outweighs the added expense. Just calculate how much time it would take you to prepare all your meals during your freshman year ?</p>
