Meal Plan Information

Gordon offers several meal plan options, each having its own combination of meal blocks (swipes) and dining points. The meal blocks (swipes) are for use throughout the semester in the Lane food court for all-you-care-to-eat meals in Tupper Hall. These meal swipes are for use at the students' discretion, giving students control and management of their meals during the semester. Dining points can be used for food purchases at Gillie's and Bistro 255 on campus. Dining points can also be used to pay the door rate for the all-you-care-to-eat venue.

Students needing specialized dietary plans will be assisted by the College Dining Services Director.

Please note: meal plans are assigned per semester. Swipes and Dining Points are intended for use within the semester and do not carry over to the next term.
