Open forum with Aramark Wednesday

PSU Auxiliary Services and soon-to-be PSU food service provider Aramark are holding an open forum on Wednesday, April 18 to hear feedback about previous food service at PSU and find out what students want.

The forum will be held in Room 298 of the Smith Memorial Student Union (SMSU) from 3 to 4 p.m. Aramark and Auxiliary Service administrators will be looking for feedback about catering for events, meetings and conferences, the retail food court in the SMSU, the Meetro coffee house and athletic and student housing meal programs.

Students that cannot make it to the forum can e-mail any ideas, questions or comments to foodserviceforum@pdx.edu.

Aramark was selected to start as PSU’s new food service provider on July 1, after Auxiliary Services Director Julie North canceled PSU’s food service contract with provider Sodexho. Aramark was the PSU food service provider from 1999 to 2005, but lost out to Sodexho in a bid for the PSU contract in 2005.

PSU ended its contract with Sodexho five years before the contract was over because of overpriced food and service mistakes, according to North.
