While the ISG’s report has immediately resulted in a positive outcome by forcing the President to flirt with alternative strategies, this plan is strategically flawed in its imposition of an arbitrary deadline and in its general simplicity. The plan??s merits should not be ignored, but its central recommendations should not be implemented. Rather, it should be taken for what it is—a serious wake-up call to the president that the current strategy is not working. We are not losing in Iraq, but we are certainly not winning...
Adopting the “flexible meal plan?? would allow students who have class during the lunch hours to stop, for example, by the Barker Center Café instead of skipping their (already paid for) meal in the dining hall or paying twice for their food. In addition, the plan would lessen the burden on over-crowded dining halls, potentially allowing Houses to scrap their inter-house restrictions. Students who now flock to Adams House to grab a quick meal between classes might chose, instead, to simply eat a salad in Barker Center. And the flexible meal plan...
Another criticism of the “flexible meal plan?? is that students who mismanage their money would be left without meals until the end of the week. But limited meals are the rule in most colleges in America, and there is no reason to suspect that Harvard students are incapable of managing their plans...
Others might worry about the plan??s potential to deteriorate students’ diets by allowing them to live (if they so choose to) on fast foods such as pizza, French fries, and pastries. While certainly an understandable concern, students who would resort to this unhealthy diet are probably already eating similar foods in the dining hall. Eating healthy is an individual choice: if a person wishes to ignore his or her health then he or she will do so, regardless of whether this meal plan is implemented...
...flexible mean plan?? would not alter the House dining hall communities or significantly affect students’ overall eating patterns. Rather, they would provide students with a choice to allocate their money more effectively, and allow students who wish to eat dinner at a later hour to be able to do so in one of the campus eateries such as the Lamont Library Café. The plan still needs some clarification: will students have to communicate beforehand how many meals they would plan to eat in House dining halls? Would students be able to track their remaining...
