How Does the A-La Board Meal Plan Work?
All menu items have a cash price, which includes the food cost and the base cost of operation (dining facility mortgages, labor, supplies, maintenance, and utilities). Because the base cost is paid up front for the entire semester, A-La Board members receive a discount off the cash price. Items that are prepared in-house are discounted 65 percent off the cash price. Branded items that are delivered into the operation are discounted 10 percent off the cash price. If you are paying for your friends or family, a 30 percent discount off items you purchase for them will be given, with the exception of the 10 percent items.
