Next year residents will not get the benefit of the $9 rate for 21 meals unless this fixture is the one contracted for at Lehman Hall. If the student who has signed up to eat 10 meals per week in the House exceeds that figure, he will be charged for additional meals to whatever extent the 10 meal number is exceeded.
