Contract food service for students living in campus residence halls is provided at the campus cafeteria. Non-contract meals for visitors and guests also are available. The cafeteria is closed on Friday evenings and on weekends. The cafeteria is located in the G. Alan Dunlap Center. All students living in Nebraska and Cornhusker residence halls must contract to eat meals in the cafeteria. Room and board contracts are signed for each term. Contracts are considered to be in effect until expired or terminated. A registered, full-time student whose course of study requires the majority of time to be spent off campus during meal time may request a waiver of this cafeteria contract from the Dean of Student Services. Cafeteria contracts also are available to students living off campus. Students eating in the cafeteria are requested to be considerate of others. Cafeteria customers are to bus their own dishes and leave the table clean. The cafeteria is operated by a private contractor and is managed by their personnel. The manager has the right to refuse service to individuals who ignore or fail to comply with established standards of good health, conduct, appearance and dress. A cafeteria committee comprised of students, the manager and the Dean of Student Services meets regularly to discuss mutual problems. All comments and concerns about the cafeteria are handled through this committee. Special meetings are called when needed. The cafeteria contract is on a declining balance. When a student purchases food, the amount will be subtracted from their account. Students cannot carry over credit to the next term.
