I posted earlier in the week that my daughter's college goofed about having sent a required e-mail to her about her loan funding. As a result, her food card at teh cafeteria has been cut off. The college is pretty much out of the way of things so there isn't much to chose from outside of the campus. Another glitch got her the wrong loan so we now have to come up with $1,700 to reinstate her meal card. Needless to say, we didn't find that amount hidden away in the sugar pot so have to withdraw money from our retirement fund. Yes, this will incur lots of extra taxes on our income tax return for early withdrawal. It will also take up to a another week or more to get here. Meanwhile, my daughter and her best friend/roommate are making do with what they had on hand. Oh, yes, her roommate was told there was a $700 error in her funding the the school cut off her meal card, too. It will take her parents until the next pay day to cover her.
All I can say, it is good thing their mother hens are not in the area or some motherly feathers would be flying at the treatment of these two girls. You can kind of understand why they both decided to not participate in their graduation and are anxious to finish out the semester and shake the dust of this institution of learning from their feet.
It is beyond me why a school would totally cut off food to out-of-state students without even inquiring into thier financial resources.
