There used to be a microwave in the Bookmarks Café. Now there is a Taco Bell. This is not an improvement. Please replace the microwave instead of inducing students to eat hyper-commercialized trash.
Thanks very much for your suggestion. The microwave and Taco Bell are not mutually exclusive. It’s true that we used to have a microwave in the café area, and it seems to have been lost in the shuffle of renovations. We recognize that there’s a lot of demand for a microwave in the café area, and we are working with Dining Services to have it reinstalled.
For more recent information on the microwave situation, please see recent comments and responses.
For more on the food selection in the café, see this recent commentary.

The Taco Bell is messy, smelly, expensive and far from something I would think a school, committed to sustainability or “being green” would take on.
When the survey was conducted, I wonder if there was an option for health food? Was there an option for anything aside from fast food? Did the survey readers know the selection they chose was going to be in the -library-????
