This is something that I can't quite get my head around.

The facility exists. Perhaps I'm mistaken, but during the semester it's only used by athletes (the same athletes who are left to their own devices in August). It's staffed by hourly employees who are cut loose in the summer?

So for the football players to have the easiest way to eat properly, the only additional expenses for SU would be 1) food costs and 2) hourly wages for seasonal employees?

I must be missing something, but I'm not sure what that might be. But it seems to me that we're not talking about hundreds of thousands of dollars to hire nutritionists; this is a very easy and fairly inexpensive fix.

Also, speaking of fixes, there's a student (who happens to be a football player) who's in an apartment with a broken stove and Physical Plant says they won't repair it this summer? I've been beating the drum about that department's ineptitude for a long time, but this is unusual even for them. They've got an obligation to provide working kitchen appliances and they probably should've been able to fix or replace the stove in 24 hours.
