Dining Hall Concerns

Aloha everyone – this is to remind all students that plastic cups, trays and metal utensils should not be removed from the dining hall. Should there be a need for a take out lunch (due to club meetings or study help) please obtain a pass from your advisor or teacher and you will be able to obtain paper plates, styrofoam cups and plastic utensils for take out lunch.
