Post Letter: Bobcat Cash not relevant to off-campus students

My name is Samantha Golden and I am a junior, living in a house off campus. I enjoyed the article: “Market Mark Ups: OU students call for change,” and I agree with your statement that the OU markets are both overpriced and are lacking in versatility. I too, found it very irregular that OU did not extend its Bobcat Cash to the stores uptown. When I was a freshman, I went around to all the restaurants such as Wendy’s and Chipotle, asking if they accepted Bobcat Cash. Needless to say, I was laughed at and regarded as a crazy person.

Post Letter: NFL has made clear steps for player safety

I recently came across an article in The Post by Nick Robbe in which he suggested that the National Football League was not interested in protecting its players. As a media management major focusing in sports media, I am constantly exposed to the ongoing battle of player safety in the NFL, and I must say there is an evident push by the NFL to increase the safety of its players.

Post Letter: Plenty of options exist to avoid high tuition cost

Students upset over tuition hikes have alternatives: Join the military to get a $10,000 enlistment bonus, then if you live or can still walk and think, upon discharge you’ll receive G.I. education benefits that pay tuition. If you re-enlist, you get a $25,000 bonus.

Meal-plan purchases increase after dining facilities restorations

A facelift for two Ohio University dining halls has attracted the appetites of hungry students and subsequently polarized preferences for certain dining establishments.

Post Letter: OU should expand meal-plan options

Students here at OU aren’t given many choices when it comes to meal plans. In the article, “Market Mark-Ups: OU students call for change,” it was stated that students can either spend their meals at the dining halls, or spend them at the OU markets.  The article also states how overpriced items are at the OU markets. Students are often surprised to find they grabbed too many items for how many meals they have left. Giving students the ability to use their meal plans at other local restaurants and markets would help students, increase admission here at OU and encourage the growth of local businesses.
