The Ithacan

Bill Guerrero, vice president for finance and administration at Ithaca College, spoke to the SGC about ending the college’s contract with Sodexo.

While the new dining services have the potential to revolutionize dining on campus, with that also comes the risk of worsening the program.

Ithaca College announced March 18 that it has decided not to renew its contract with Sodexo, the college’s widely criticized food provider.

Ithaca College hosted an open forum to discuss Dining Services concerns with the campus community March 4 in the Klingenstein Lounge.

Ithaca College Dining Services, fueled by food provider Sodexo, has received high ratings for its vegan options over the past several years.

A new area located in the Campus Center Dining Hall opened at the beginning of Spring 2019 to provide a way for students with food allergies and intolerances to safely eat in the dining hall.

Rather than merely voicing our grievances to one another and posting on social media, students should voice their concerns to people who are actually capable of making change on our campus.

William Guerrero spoke to Student Governance Council about upcoming reforms to student meal plans, housing and affordability at its Dec. 10 meeting.

Even after these changes have been made, the company still leaves much to be desired. Enough is enough.

A petition circulating social media calling for changes to Ithaca Colleges dining practices has garnered over 500 parent and student signatures in recent weeks.

Spoon University is an organization that gives college students the tools to write, photograph, create videos and host events focused on food.
