The Campus Food Service Advi
sory Committee is considering con
solidating the athletic training table
with the major campus food contract
so all campus food services will be
under one contract.
The training table is a cafeteria in
Ehringhaus Residence Hall used by
full scholarship athletes and athletic
staff for free. Other athletes may eat
at the training table with coaches'
permission, but they have to pay to
use it.
The Residence Hall Association
(RHA) passed a resolution March 9
calling for the athletic department to
take full and immediate responsibility
for all training table operational
costs. . . .
The committee will also consider
whether the athletic department
should pay a rental fee to the housing
department for the cafeteria space.
The athletic department pays all costs
of running the training table and
utilities but has had free use of space
in Ehringhaus for. about 20 years, said
John Swofford, director of athletics.
The yearly operating costs of the
cafeteria, which seats about 148
people, are $400,000, said Gene
Robinson, athletic department food
service director. The cafeteria closes
for major University vacations but is
open during the summer, he said.
If the committee passes the recom
mendations, they will be subject to
Chancellor Paul Hardin's final
approval.
Consolidation of all campus food
services, including the training table,
is a key to the success of the UNC
food service, said James Cansler,

committee chairman and associate
vice chancellor and associate dean of
student affairs. "The underlying
principle is a principal problem with
the food service. The overhead costs
are out of line with the volume of
sales.
"The volume of sales cannot be
increased in the current facilities, and
we're looking for ways to increase the
volume of sales."
RHA had two goals in mind
representing on-campus residents and
consolidating campus food services
when members drew up their
resolution, said Michael Sullivan,
Ehringhaus governor. "We're not
attacking the athletic department. It's
just a way of representing on-campus
residents and a way. to express our
view that we should consolidate food
services."
Fairness was also a consideration
in passing the resolution, said RHA
President-elect Liz Jackson. "On
campus residents are being forced to
pay for a service they are not receiving
any benefits for. We're saying to the
committee, 'No matter what you do
(about consolidation), we would like
to see money paid for services used.' "

The rental arrangement is unusual
for residence halls' space, said Gary
Johnson, Ehringhaus area director
and committee member. "Normally,
there would be a rental fee, or fee
charged and utilities that are not

Other costs to the housing depart
ment include cleaning dormitory
areas outside the cafeteria, such as
bathrooms and hallways, and locking

employees, Johnson said.
