Starting today, O'Hill dining hall will be open an extra hour, until 9 pm, on Monday-Thursday. This change comes after much protest among students regarding the early closing hour that did not accommodate students returning from late discussion sections and club meetings. Though only the sandwich and stir fry stations will remain open, I have no complaints, because those two options are generally fail-proof dining choices. Coming from a high school that only pretended to listen to the requests of students, I was both surprised and impressed when I heard the University was appeasing students' requests. My expectation was that even though people were complaining, nothing would be done. I've decided to let this change motivate me to advocate for other realistic changes I see a need for within the University community, instead of whining unproductively. My schedule prevents me from returning to my room until 8 pm on Wednesdays, so I'm excited to enjoy my first Wednesday night dinner in O'Hill this week!
