Freshmen: When given the option between the standard 15-a-week meal plan and all Entree Plus points, do the latter. They will tell you it's the least economical plan, but be careful, when was the last time the University gave you tips on how to actually save money when buying stuff through them?

Points = dollars, and if you do all Entreé Plus points (something like 600), you'll eat in luxury forever, whether it's at any of the dorms or under the Union at Subway, Wendy's, Mrs. Field's, Bell's Pizza or ****ty Wok (I can't remember the real name), all of which take Entreé Plus instead of cash. Also, there is a mythical grocery store on North Campus that sells every kind of food and it takes Plus Points. It's pure euphoria as you quickly empty the store realizing that buying stuff with Entreé Plus in no way counts as spending real money.

After I made the switch, I literally could count the times I ate dorm food on one hand. I also proved my hypothesis that you can only eat Wendy's, Mrs. Fields and Noodles and Company every day and not gain weight. It may have something to do with the fact that I have the metabolism of an African Lion on steroids, but I'm still thinking about coming out with a diet book,  pending I don't die of massive heart failure in the next five years.
