Catering Under Fire

Catering Under Fire

Fellow Students,

I cannot understand why you tolerate the method of food disposal in the dining room. In essence it differs little from a take-away food bar. The caterers are only interested in the ease with which they can obtain a profit. It is for their convenience that coffee is sold in disposable paper cups with wobbly handles, not ours. The unhygenic mess you are putting up with is a direct result of the system and can be avoided by changing it. I urge the use of plates, knives, forks, cups, saucers and yea, even the humble teaspoon. Regretfully, this will cause the-extinction of that fascinating primeval figure, burdened down with the colossal weight' of unending rubbish.

Yours truly;

Oink Oink.

PS If these suggestion are too radical, the removal of three walls and the planting of grass seed on the union floor would be an improvement.
