What does he do with the extra meals? I don’t understand.

Both my kids have hated the food available in the dining halls. Two different schools.

I'm guessing the child is quite large

He eats them at night. He weighs maybe 125-130. He’s not overweight. My brother used to eat at least one meal after dinner and often two.

I know you know how boys eat. Don't have to be large to eat a lot.

Did kid’s mom know a guy named Joey Chestnut about 20 years ago?

$20/day us a great price for 2 or 3 catered meals, but who needs 2 or 3 catered meals each day?
It's a substantial part of the total cost of attendance at a time when even state school is expensive.

Maybe instead of spending their leisure time climbing rock walls & lounging around swimming pools, students could spend a a few hours each day hunting, trapping, & killing critters for food.

Students’ food expenses would drop, destructive animals would be less plentiful, so a win-win situation.

The only problems might be an occasional flesh wound from an errant bullet or the amputation of a few limbs if people are careless around wildlife traps. Small prices to pay for having lower food bills.


This made me laugh! I attended a flagship in Texas. All my friends had ranches or farms . One of my roommates parents bought a huge stand alone freezer. It was stocked to the top with deer (in many different cuts from steaks to sausage to burgers). Then the ducks, quail and doves. We ate like kings and had more than enough beer money!
