Transcript

By Carvan Craft Staff Writer Staying welland healthy in college begins at the various campus dining services. _ Eating well promotes better concentration and focus. With empty stom- achs, students are not able to keep their minds on studying or lectures. It is also easier to get ill when not eating proper- ly. At Western Carolina University, Campus Din- ing Services strives for -the best in order to keep _ students well and active. Sarah Caruso, market- ing coordinator for Cam- pus Dining Services, _ explained what to look for this year. Both [the University Center and the dining hall] have gluten-free options. However, the dining hall has one area dedicated to address gluten-free options. Glu- ten free options at any of our national brands are limited to what the brand has available from their standard menu. choices. The dining hall has gluten-free bread, pizza, or desserts avail- able, and then students. can mix and match other items to erent a com- plete meal. Additionally, the C-Store contains a gluten-free section and. - several items throughout for students sensitive to those needs. On March 28, students: handed out free vegan food options in an ef- fort to promote a vegan lifestyle. Many students were excited about the event because they felt WCU provide for their needs. Of course WCU needs more vegan options, said Kayla Beavers, a WCU senior. There are _ slim to none to begin _ with. We need this op- tion available on campus because it is healthier and more humane. We. should all support the use of cruelty-free meat and work towards reduc- ing our'impact. We need more healthy options instead of greasy pizza and warm chocolate chip cookies. T definitely agree that we need more vegan food on campus, answered Heather Hust. It is in- credibly difficult to keep a vegan diet on campus. Mostly everythingin. | - the cafeteria has meat in it, which also makes it "difficult for debavniene to have a well- balanced diet) 307 Caruso has good news for anyone wanting + vegan meals. - We try to accommo- date a variety of differ- . ent lifestyles and diets, continued Caruso. As an outgrowth of our - commitment to healthy dining options, we are creating a vegan-only station located at the end of the deli station. It will _ include both hot and cold items, as well as sides to fill out a vegan plate. Also arriving this year, WCU Campus Dining announced on their Facebook page on August 8, that Freshens now offers crepes, salads and more fruity bever- ageseg When asked how many students had campus meal plans, Caruso said, We had approximate- ly 4,300 students on meal plans in the fall of 2011 and will have about the same amount this year. Caruso explained that the money for meal plans is to cover food costs, la- - bor costs, utilities, insur- ance, uniforms, training, | facilities, renovations and upgrades. pea fh Cullowhee By Brandy Carl What do you get when you mix the Jackson County Department of Public Health, The Community Table, N.C. Cooperative Extension, Jackson County Psycho- logical Services, WCU Service Learning de- . partment and The Jack- son County Planning Department? Cullowhee gets a garden. By early fall, Cullo- whee residents will see the first round of plot adoptions go out for The Cullowhee Commu- - nity Garden, started by Adam Bigelow. Bigelow will also be controlling pests, mak- ing compost, managing educational programs, managing the garden itself and become a resource for members looking for information as the head gardener. . My intention is to help everyone who adopts a plot in The Cullowhee Community Garden to be successful . in theix gardens, said Bigelow. By agreeing to donate half of what is grown to The Community Table, community members can adopt plots within the garden. Only veg- etables, fruits and flow- ers using organic and natural methods will be planted. No synthetic fertilizers or pesticides will allowed. Tools, materials and assistance will be provided. : The Cullowhee Com- munity Garden will be located off of Old Cullo- whee Road at the corner of Monteith Gap Road and S Painter Road, across the river from the strip housing, the old China Dragon loca- tion and Sazon Mexican Cuisine. The gardens location is considered. within walking distance of WCUs main campus and Avant Garden. At first, the Cullowhee Community Garden will have one acre of land, _ though Bigelow hopes to gain more land with future phases. The first acre has enough space for 60 15-by-30 foot plots, with smaller plot sizes available. Eat Smart, Move More, a movement to increase opportunities to eat right and promote physical activity, will fund the project with grants and provide sup- plies necessary for the * Photo oe Amelia Holmes/Staff About 4,300 students signed up for meal plans in fall 2011. Campus Dining Services expects the same for this year. Students may also always contact a location manager with concerns or request in order to | get direct feedback. We encourage open commu-- nication with our stu- _ dents and are willing to a a Cullowhee Community Garden, They will also pay the garden manag- ers first year salary. The grant, so vital to the project, was secured with the assistance: of Anna Lippard, the Health Promotions/ Healthy Carolinas coor- dinator of the Jackson County Department of. Public Health. | After that, Bigelow hopes to secure more grants through Eat Smart, Move More as | well as other organiza- | tions, plus a potential for income generated from future phases of the project. - The Cullowhee Com- munity Garden is meant to provide an opportu- nity for the community to come together and provide fresh produce for the community itself. . The garden will | also serve as a model: of economic, social and especially environmen- tal sustainability, said Bigelow. Others, such as the Jackson County Health Director Paula Carden, look at the garden . through a similar stand , point. Community gardens enhance nutrition and pry sie: activity ane promote the role of public health in improv- ing quality of life, said .Carden. The Cullowhee Com- ole abe Garden is now help them find what they are looking for, said Caruso. aes Other on campus dining options include: Papa Johns, Chick-fil-A, Burger Studio, Star- bucks, Einstein Bros. i PRCA Sap sha Bagels, Zoca, Panda Ex- press and Freshens.
