Here at Frostburg State University, students have a couple different options to choose from when dining. They can eat at the Chesapeake Dining Hall, where one swipe for meal plan holders can offer a buffet of different foods for either breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Students can eat at the widely popular Appalachian Station, which offers breakfast sandwiches and pancakes during breakfast, and burgers, sandwiches, and freshly made flat bread pizza with special toppings of one's choice for lunch and dinner. If none of those strikes the fancy of a student during lunchtime, they can always take a little walk up hill to the Sub Zero for subs and chicken tenders. Last but not least, there's Late Night for the those with the late night munchies, that serves the Freshman 15 advocates: hot dogs, nachos, and occasional Wing Nights.
Several students were asked to comment on the dining options on campus. Sophmore and Athletic Training major, Brian Biscoe, of Washington, DC said that the dining options had, "very few selections, it isn't very healthy, and it's just plain old NASTY!"
Junior, Kenny Pratt of Atlanta, GA, feels that the dining services are too costly for low quality food. "Yeah, the Cafe is like a buffet, but as a non- meal plan holder, to pay $9 for food that isn't that great is a bit much."
While standing on top of a table trying to raise money for a food bank, International Business major, Louis Mozzano of Middletown, MD, gave a minute to express that he was "perfectly satisfied" with the on campus dining services. His only wishes were that there was another time opening between dinner, which ends at 7:30 pm, and Late Night which begins at 10 pm.
There are mixed feelings when it comes to dining services on campus. Some can't stand it, while others wouldn't want it any other way. If the on campus dining services aren't the choice of the night, there are multiple pizza shops, Chinese restaurants, and even Sheetz, which is just a few minutes off campus.
