The Positivity of Ridgewater College Cafeteria
The cafeteria at Ridgewater College is a pleasant place to eat food where tons of people gather. It has a very unique nourishment wise. The taste and the smell of the nutrient is sweet. Once people walk in you have a different instinct, then you were thinking before. Furthermore, its dining tables and chairs are attractive. The flooring of the cafeteria looks great. The floor has the campus logo. TVs are there due to the seminars that are held there most of the time, and they also make announcements of what is going on around the campus. The cafeteria is also holds orientation for newcomer and students. Also, there are pool tables where students congregate once they come there during their off

In my positive paragraph, my best word choice was “congregate’’ instead of using the word “gather” for a better word choice. The paragraph started “Also there are pool tables where students congregate once they come there during their off classes”. The word “congregate” out shines the rest of the sentence. From my point of view utilizing the word “congregate”, will make the paragraph more absorbing for the audience to read and also me not using the word “gather” helps to make the paragraph more accountable to the audience to know how significant the word “congregate” fits better to understand the student’s aroma, for their time at the pool tables. Beyond that the word “congregate” is better to use rather than “gather” because gather sounds like does not sound like an academic word. While “congregate” seems to be a more professional word to use instead. In my negative paragraph, my best word choice was “Bad” instead of using the “adverse”. The sentence I choice the word from started like this “the staff that work there are bad people’’. Using the word ‘’bad’’ for a negative word choice gives a powerful affection of negative reaction students have about the staff there. Consequently, the staff being “bad” shows that a negativity towards students and other faculty. As for the audience they are going to have a glimpse look of this passage and when they get to the word “bad”, they might almost have a negative idea of the staff at the cafeteria. This word better fit here because it is a simpler word also. Word choice and figurative of language generates pictures in the mind of the readers. Incorporating word choice and figurative language helps produce a positive and negative image of the
... the cafeteria over 100 seats are available, so the surrounding will actually help people to be more engaging to their friends. Also, there are many events was held in the building, such as ISU after dark and some very significant speeches were taken place inside the building. The most exciting event I have been through was the orientation. It was taken place in the “Sun Room”, where can be a hall of party and auditorium of a speech. Outside the room there are soft sofa available to students to seat down and read, and the beverage bar will not be far, so why not get a drink and seat for a novel.
Yet, with personal experience in having worked in a cubicle setting and being a student, I often found myself looking forward to lunch as much to eat as to socialize with coworkers and friends. In a passage of her article, Widdicombe describes visiting Caltech and witnessing dinnertime, in which most “Skurves” were laying out dishes to get ready for dinner. However, a small minority of students sat surrounded by laptops and problem sets, nursing bottles of Soylent, ignoring the dinnertime commotion. Although they are being arguably more productive in their usage of time, they are missing out on socializing with their peers, an essential part of the college experience. In addition to nutritional value, meals offer an outlet for self-expression, bonding, and socializing that would be lost if everyone were to say- be carrying around a water bottle with a days supply of
Some dining locations are open past 8:00 PM several nights of the week on-campus. However, many of these eating facilities are relatively unknown to a large portion of the underclassmen. Most are located under dorms and hidden from the student’s eyes. They are also incapable of holding a large amount of students simply because they don’t have the room.
For the past two years, the number of students have increased at the Marietta High School. Because of this, a fourth lunch had to be added so there could be space for the students to eat. Although that made a major impact, the number of students continue to increase and there is still no space to eat. The students have only three designated areas where they are allowed to eat, the library, the cafeteria, and the senior courtyard ( If you are a senior). Some days the weather will conflict with the students that want to eat at the courtyard and they will have to sit either at
In my proposal plan I recommend that the average wait time at each food station in the café be decreased, especially during high rush hour time for example during the lunch and dinner rushes. We can help reduce the time by having servers make up pre portioned plates that way students can grab and go instead of wait in a line for upwards of thirty minutes for cold food. We can also have different food options added that serve different options because as of now the food lines operate on a schedule with the same food options every week. Another recommendation would to be expanded the cafeteria as a whole. As of now Howard University as roughly 10,000 undergraduate students, the cafeteria can barely hold 800 students comfortably. This will also cause the café to have better organization of lines in order to decrease confusion.
In all the freedom and choices a college student can face, food is a major one. The campus cafeteria selection...
In my description, the use of diction helped me decide whether I was going to choose negatives or positives details. For example, the words “interaction and generous” were positive ways that portrayed the people. The reason that I chose these two words is because it shows the different people that were getting alone with one another. Also, another reason I choose these two words is because the families and employees facial expressions displayed they were happy to be there. One negative diction I used to show the expressions of the employee and customers was them “arguing” with one another. The employee and customers was arguing because the customer did not want to pay for their refreshments. The reason I chose the word arguing was to show how the employee and customers was interacting with each
It wasn’t so much a cafeteria as it was a “great dining-hall.” People got in, got to eating, and got out. Food and drink were passed around, but there was no time for “lighting a good cigarette.” The women weren’t allowed the privilege of sinking into “the cushions in the window-seat” that the men were. There was a set schedule for this meal. As soon as everyone had finished up, they “scraped their chairs back” as the large doors swung “to and fro.” It wouldn’t be long before the entire cafeteria had been “emptied of every sign of food and made ready… for breakfast next morning.” There was no luxury at this dining-hall, just a modest
It’s a place where you could eat breakfast or lunch while watching a screen and talking to friends about current events, how our classes were going, and grades. My favorite thing to eat is the chicken strips with chips, a cookie, and occasionally ice cream. The Food Court contributes to what makes the Memorial Union stand up to its values. The lecture series is the place where intellectuals, famous activist, and lecturers go to speak. Great speakers like Ta-nehisi Coates (The Atlantic Magazine writer), Ali Velshi (MSNBC political commentator), Harriet Washington (Harvard professor in medicine), and Senator Klobuchar (United States Senator from Minnesota) have all given lectures that have blown my mind. This helps expand my knowledge and creativity. This applies to everyone, not just myself. What Iowa State does is provide equal opportunity for all people to learn which is very special to me and represents the mission statement. One person may be into politics, the other science, and the other music, no matter what our differences are we can rely on the lecture series to provide a lecture that fits our ideological
A double flight of stairs led down to the dining room. The dining room itself was to be divided by a row of paired plaster columns running east to west. Windows look both north and south to create a bright and airy room. There was very little storage room was tucked into the east staircase, giving the impression that food was brought over to be cooked as needed, as many of the supplies remained in the refractory. Until the construction of Prothro Commons in 1983 this room functioned as the freshman-dining hall. This is an interesting concept, because one of the things that makes sweet briar so unique and gives it such a sense of community is the idea that everybody and all classes share a dining room. The idea of having a separate dining room for the freshman class raises the question of ostracization from the rest of the classes in a place where community should
Walking to the cafeteria is like walking, or running, in a marathon. If I could make a significant change to the structure or appearance to my school, I would add a cafeteria hallway for the middle school. First, students and staff members would not have to walk as far to eat lunch. Most staff and students have to walk down the stairs just to go get their lunches. Second, staff members and students would have much longer lunches.
- For cafeteria procedures, the student start from the playground. They would line up and go back inside the building around 10 minutes early to get their hands wash. We would take them to the rest room, and have boys and girls make two lines and start to wash their hands and use the rest room if needed. Once done, one student will carried a big basket that held the lunch boxes that they dropped in before the morning start. Inside the basket are also their I.D. for students who eat school lunch.
The cafeteria is not merely a place for small children; now that I am in college, I spend more time in the cafeteria than ever. Living in the dorms, I have no kitchen or any other place to cook. Instead, I have a meal plan that offers me fourteen meals each week at the Stanford/Hecht cafeteria. I eat lunch and dinner there as my two meals on most days. But, I do not and cannot go to the cafeteria and just get food. I get much more.
All cafeterias at all of the different schools are different from each other. One cafeteria can be loud and one could not or one could be big or one can be small. These are a few example of different types of cafeterias in the United States. Cafeterias have changed in some ways but not many changes are obvious to people. Some of the changes school cafeterias should make are having a longer lunch period, make it more appealing, and healthier food options.
Students complain about prom being in school cafeteria: O'Fallon, Cahokia, East Side , Etc. have their proms in fancy hotels and halls, but it is a tradition to have prom in the cafeteria and students are fed up! All of the money that the students pay to the school and they say that we can't afford to have it somewhere else meanwhile the football field is getting new material every year. Paris Johnson states “ they need to switch it up , it's starting to get boring in the cafeteria.”
