WHEREAS,  there has been an interest among the student body to extend dining hall hours to

accommodate those who are not able to consume dinner within the normal dining hours; and,

 

WHEREAS,  many ideas have been considered including:

1)      “Fast Track” – Hamburgers, Hot Dogs, Cold Cuts.

2)      Extension of one or more dining hall’s hours (with full menu).

3)      Wolves’ Den Renovation to accommodate a broader menu; and,

 

WHEREAS,  through discussions with University Dining, it was agreed that the “Fast Track”

option left much to be desired; and,      

 

WHEREAS,  both the second and third option were indeed viable options to pursue; and,       

 

WHEREAS,  the interests of both University Dining and the Student Body is the most efficient

and convenient dining system possible; now therefore be it,

 

RESOLVED,  by the North Carolina State University Student Senate that, after discussions between the agencies of Student Government and University Dining, we encourage University Dining, on a long term basis, to look into renovating Talley Student Center, with an emphasis on the Wolves Den and extending the hours of both Taco Bell and Lil’ Dinos; and be it further,

 

RESOLVED, that in the short term, University Dining look into possibly extending hours at one or more dining halls to 9 pm; and be it further,

 

RESOLVED, that Student Government commends University Dining for being receptive to the concerns of NC State’s Student Body.
