UC Santa Cruz Dining
Meal time is an opportunity  to meet old and new friends, visit and relax, and of course, EAT! All students living on campus and at the University Inn are required to have a meal plan.
The campus features five dining halls located across the campus. Student ID cards, which double as both meal card and bus pass, may be used at all of the campus dining halls as well as several campus coffee bars, cafes and restaurants. Weekly dining hall menus are published online. Many of the dining hall also offer daily specials and unique specialty items.
College Nights are a formal and popular event  where students are served at their table or treated to a special buffet dinner. College Nights have student-designed themes and feature entertainment.
