THE ISSUE: Dining Services has asked students to fill out a survey about their view of campus dining.
OUR VIEW: Students should use this survey as an opportunity to voice concerns about poor customer service and influence Aramark to implement higher standards at Western’s restaurants. Poor service reflects poorly on Western as a whole.
