Students have been busy complaining about changes to the campus convenience store, the Eagle's Nest, as popular chips, cookies and other snacks have been replaced by organic products and healthy foods.
The Eagle's Nest and Bon Appetit insist the inconvenience is temporary while they restock and reorganize the store. Once the transformation is complete, both conventional and organic products will be available. Managers cited requests for healthier options as reasoning for the change.
We fully recognize the need for healthier options, and are pleased to see the new organic products. However, a large student population depends on the Nest for their late-night junk food cravings, and they shouldn't be denied those snacks. Plus, the higher prices are enough to turn away any thrifty shopper.
But look a little closer, because everyone's favorites are still on the shelves. Adding new choices is no reason to complain, it's all part of a thing called change.
