There was a time when students could make their own sandwich without waiting for someone to do it for them at TDR. There was also a time when you could have as much mac and cheese as you wanted without being told by a worker that you can “only have one scoop.” There was a time when a plate was a plate, not a teacup saucer. Lines didn’t stretch out to the registers and students were in charge of what they ate. We were not limited to two ribs, we did not need to ask permission for seconds and a swipe into TDR was worth the price of admission.
During my freshman year at AU, I contracted a virus that required me to seek medical help. I thought going to the Student Health Center was a reasonable idea. After waiting two days for the first available time slot, I then waited another hour and 24 minutes past my appointment time, watching other students who arrived after me get seen before me. I was also blindsided by the high price tag and the inability to use my insurance card at all, instead having to use EagleBucks.
