Very Vegetarian and Chicken Finger Wraps
By EVAN PARKER PIERCE | Oct. 15, 2003New renovations and growing food options were the topics of discussion when Mitch Green, director of the Faculty Student Association, addressed the Student Association Assembly Monday afternoon for the first time in two years.Adam Sherlip, speaker of the Assembly, said the purpose of having FSA at the meeting was to educate students on what FSA does on campus."The goals of them speaking is to allow the Assembly to understand where the FSA directors are coming from," Sherlip stated in an e-mail.Green addressed assembly questions regarding proliferation of FSA's Campus Cash system to locations outside UB."We're working with a 10-year-old computer system," said Green, "We've nearly filled up the system, so in terms of making campus cash more available with off-campus vendors, it's really a problem of technology."Green added he has been trying for years to make Campus Cash available at local grocery stores, but the complexities of the different systems and the troubles of local stores such as Tops have made the option less attractive to the different chains."We've been trying for five years to get a grocery store to take Campus Cash," he said, "and believe me, if Tops came in today to say they wanted to accept Campus Cash, it would happen very quickly."Green and Assistant Directors of Dining Services Cindy Youngers and Jeff Brady then gave a summary of FSA's accomplishments over the past year and shared what was in the works for the coming year.
