position paper

Hey, have you ever ate at the UTD dining hall? Well I haven’t, but I heard that’s its pretty bad. So I decided to go and eat there for 5 days straight to see whats going to happen. But just after eating there for the second day I found it hard to write position paper for a wider range of dining options at UTD. The main reason is that why on earth would you eat at the same place for 5 days? Even eating at the best restraunt for 5 days would be sick. But at Utd there are many other options and variety of foods to choose from. And when your tired of it, cook for yourself, cause that’s a good skill to learn.
Just before I begin explaining my 5 day experience at the UTD dining hall. I would like to tell you a little history about dining hall. The dining hall was first opened at august 2009 (I am pretty sure that was the result of many students complaining about dining options at UTD). But anyways I did some research about the hours of the dining hall and what they serve.

For me my 5 day experiment I started on a saterday afternoon at around 1pm. I have to complain a little since it cost 10 dollars to eat there and I will be 50 by the end of my eexperiment, but when compared to other “all-you-can-eat” buffets, the price is pretty reasonable. since it was 1pm at saterday and only brunch was served, the food was still amazing, there was lots of selections to choose from. I tried almost all the food served and took notes on what they served so I could compare it each day. One of the weirdest thing I tried was cinnamon on rice (tasted just like what it sounds). On the end of the first day I wrote awesome, good food, and That’s when I figured out how hard its to write a position paper for a wider range of food and decided to change my thesis. On the second day It’s a day that changed instead of paying 10$ and eating the food again I asked permission to just walk in and take notes. I specificly sought for food that’s not been there the last day and there was variety (different food to choose from) and it was a Sunday! To be continued maybe…

Apart from the dining hall there is other options such as the comet café which consists of subway papajohns and chickfila and chef’s table. All are different with different selections of drinks and chips. There is also the pub which I haven’t been to yet, but the food is great. There’s also a bookstore Coffe shop, Coffee Corner and Novel Brew which sells sandwiches coffee/tea and other drinks.And there is also a food truck somewhere around the campus which sells fries and stuff. There is a recently opened outakes plave where you could get coffee soups/ salad and hot potatoe bar and also sushi. And if that’s not enough there are plenty of vending machines scattered all over the place when you need a quick snack.

Some people may say that there needs to be a wider range of food. But there is a lot of food. If you want new food everyday that’s unreasonable. I believe UTD already have a wide selection of food and if they push for more that would be awesome. And seriously chick-fila for a semester is good enough for me.
