| Q. How do I use my Dining Card? |
A. Your card will be swiped and a meal will be deducted from your meal plan each time you visit. Only you may use your card! A card used by anyone other than the identified student is not permitted and will result in the card being confiscated. Our hand reader technology will verify that YOU are the person using YOUR card.

A. In consideration of those who dine after you, please take your tray, dishes, and trash to the dish return area in the Dining Room.
