ASU to Self-Operate Market, Coffeeshop in ‘09
According to a release by the ASU yesterday, the ASU is planning to “[move] forward with a self-operated food services model for implementation in September 2009.” This will include operating a market, coffee shop and grille line for the coming year, with strategic discussions including “a food service survey followed by several focus groups, public information meetings, a presentation to the Students’ Representative Council for ratification purposes, and finally, a referendum if necessary.”
The release mentions that talks ceased between Tim Horton’s and the ASU due to a need for “more research and consultation”, though other sources seem to indicate that a Tim Horton’s option would have required a sizable investment that the ASU was not prepared to make without consulting students.
