To the Editor:

Thank you for your article on the new meal plan options ("DDS announces final meal plan changes," May 24). I find it really irritating that meal plans continue to be a source of confusion and frustration for students at Dartmouth. Worrying about maximizing or running out of food dollars is not a good use of a Dartmouth student's time. What is wrong with a simple DBA account usable at all outlets? Students and parents can agree together on a reasonable amount of DBA for each term. A separate DBA account for Topside sounds completely unnecessary, and a limit of $200 is ridiculous! Why would Topside want to limit their revenue? I hope someone can streamline this system in the near future.
