Students opinions
Jessica Rutkowski is a missionary at the Catholic Campus Ministry who expressed the difference between WSU and other universities.
“It seems pretty deserted most of the time, which is kind of hard if you’re in a rush. I’m not in a rush, but it’s pretty different from other colleges that I’ve been to,” Rutkowski stated.
According to Rutkowski, the dining halls do have options for everyone, but Rutkowski prefers to bring packed lunches from home as some of the pricing is very high for the healthier options.
Jebadiah Patterson and Kalli Koppin are both first-year students. Both Patterson and Koppin enjoy the options on campus, especially the sushi and Tim Hortons.
According to Patterson, between the Union Market, Tim Hortons, the Hangar and Raider Mart, dining services cover all the bases.
“I wish the Hangar was open a little later, only for the fact that I live in The Woods, so it's more convenient to just go there instead of the other side of campus,” Koppin mentioned.
Jeffery Henderson, cashier and contractor for WSU, loves working at the dining halls.
“Oh, I’ve had so much fun here, for real,” Henderson said.
