There is no variety of vegetables and other healthy meals in school cafeteria, hence the need to advocate for a change in menus and introduction of healthy meals. My ideologies are biased ...

As a student at BPCC, I am grateful for the opportunity to receive a quality education, and the instruction in the classroom has exceeded all of my expectations so far. However, the cafeteria is not sufficient for the needs of the students, which has created a situation that must be rectified immediately.

First of all, there are not enough choices on the menu. If we wanted to be subjected to the same set of unattractive options each day, we would have stayed in high school so that we could endure “Mystery Meat” every Tuesday and mixed vegetables three days a week. There are ...
