ON-CAMPUS Resident Meal Plans
If you are a resident of any of the on-campus housing facilities, each semester you will automatically be signed up for the 14 meal Plan. You will then have the first ten (10) class days of each semester to make changes. All Changes MUST BE MADE IN PERSON in the Staff Office in Kilcawley Center. A valid University I.D. must be presented. As an added convenience during move-in week, Dining Services will have a table set-up in Christman Dining Commons to make changes.
19 Meals: 19 Meals per week for the semester + $100 Pete's Points
14 Meals: 14 Meals per week + $115 in bonus points per semester + $100 Pete's Points 10 Meals: 10 Meals per week + $150 in bonus points per semester + $100 Pete's Points
Meal Zones
The schedule for meal plans runs from Monday breakfast through Sunday dinner. *NEW FOR ACADEMIC YEAR 2007/2008: YOU MAY USE A MAXIMUM OF TWO (2) MEALS PER MEAL TIME.
Meal Zone Times:
Breakfast: 7:00am–10:30am
Lunch: 10:31am–4:00pm
Dinner: 4:01pm–8:00pm
Late Nite: 9:00pm–Midnight

Cash Equivalency Program
Meal Plan participants may choose to eat certain meals at Kilcawley Center, or one of our other retail locations. The amount you are allowed to spend varies by meal zone:
Breakfast = $2.75
Lunch = $4.40
Dinner = $5.15
Participants may select any freshly prepared items on the menu. If your selections total more than the allotted equivalency, you may pay the balance at the time of purchase with cash, bonus points, Penguin Dollars or Pete's Points.
Please Note:
Pre-packaged convenience foods such as bottled beverages, chips, candy, yogurt, Weight Watchers snacks, etc. ARE NOT INCLUDED in this program, and must always be purchased with cash, bonus points, Penguin Dollars or Pete's Points.
It is important to understand that the Cash Equivalency Program IS NOT an all-you-can-eat program like the traditional meal program at Christman Dining Commons. Each time you make a cash equivalency purchase it counts as one (1) meal swipe used.
NEW FOR ACADEMIC YEAR 2007/2008!
Pete's Points
Special additional points valid in ALL retail dining locations on campus, including KC Food Court, Bagel Stop, Pete's Place Restaurant, The Candy Counter, Peaberry's, and Arby's (all located in Kilcawley Center), Cafe a la Cart (in Cushwa Hall, Williamson Hall and Beeghly Hall), Corner Cafe (on the Wick Avenue parking garage bridge walkway), Jazzman's Cafe (located in the Maag Library), and also at the Christman Dining Commons (located by Lyden and Cafaro resident halls).
How Do Bonus Points Work?
Bonus points can be used like cash ($1.00 Bonus Points = $1.00 Cash) towards food purchases or when you exceed your equivalency amounts. Bonus points can also be used for purchases at the “Time-Out” convenience store located in Christman Dining Commons.
What If I Run Out Of Bonus Points?
You can purchase more bonus points with a cash deposit of twenty-five ($25) or more at the Dining Service Office.
What If I Don’t Use All of My Bonus Points?
Unused points expire for everyone at the end of EACH semester.
Can I Use Points To Pay For A Guest?
If you have a guest on campus, you are able to use bonus points or Pete's Points to pay for them.
How Can I Eat?
Your University I.D. is your admission ticket to our dining facilities. If you do not have your card with you in our dining facilities, you cannot eat!
What If I Lose or Forget My Card?
If you lose or forget your card, you will need to stop in the Kilcawley Center Staff Office to be issued a temporary card. A photo I.D. is required for this.
If I Am Not Going To Eat, Can Someone Else Use My Card?
NO ONE ELSE is able to have your meal. Meals are not transferable.
