We understand the issue and have been working on a more viable solution. For now, sanitary products are available for $1.99 in the bookstore. In the future, we are hoping to partner with the health center to have them provided for free.
Love,

I totally agree! I remember when it was Aramark a few years back (guessing it still is) and having to sign up for the godawful meal plan freshman year, even though I lived in Mines Park with a full sized kitchen. If students want to cook their own meals, they should be able to! There were several times a week when the meals were so bad the only decent and safe option was cereal (medium rare chicken, anyone?) Had to skip lunch Fridays or pack a sack lunch, because my class schedule didn't line up with the kitchen schedule. This is one of the reasons I'm hesitant to donate as an alumnus - still sore that I had no choice, and that it's still going on.
Better yet, combine this with an EPICS class - design a greenhouse that requires minimal maintenance and zero energy, to be budgeted and built by students in a low traffic area on campus. (Not sure this would have a significant effect on food prices, though - growing veggies for less than grocery store prices is hard when you factor in the cost of labor, water, and fertilizer.)
