Famine at Grand Valley State University
Grand Valley State University closed multiple dining centers on campus leaving students demanding a partial refund for meal plans. GVSU Campus Dining has reduced hours of operations in addition to closing dining halls. Multiple student organizations including Students for Food Sovereignty and GVSU's RA Council drafted plans in response to the change in operations with Campus Dining.

• GVSU Campus Dining closed four out of six dining options in Kleiner Commons. Campus Dining is now only offering Center Plate and Simple Greens to students in Kleiner commons from 11 A.M. to 11 P.M. Monday to Friday.

Campus Dining refused to issue any form of refunds or compensations. Campus Dining stated in an email response to a student that "At this point the university is not offering any refunds for dining plans as there are options available to students."

Campus Dining blamed the shortage of workers on lack of students applying to work. In response, students are claiming that they submitted applications and never heard back. Students also pointed out that campus dining is unethical. Reasons include :


 * Holds a policy which prohibits the rehire of previous employees
 * Receives food from Aramark, a company known for providing expired food to prisoners
 * Is known for ignoring sexual assault allegations
 * Has a reputation for randomly firing employees
 * Not respecting student schedules
