Q: What does a swipe get me at the Lynx Lair?
A: One meal swipe allows you to dine freestyle from any or all, of the Lair鈥檚 dining concepts. Ins and outs and subsequent visits after moving to the seating area will require a new meal swipe; however, multiple swipes are permitted in the same meal period.
Q: Can I use my meal plan for guest meals?
A: Lynx Bucks can be used for guest meals. The unlimited meal plan is intended only for the individual students who purchased the meal plan. The unlimited meal plan is not intended to buy food for others (ex. tacos for entire table of friends, students that didn't purchase an unlimited plan, etc.). This is a violation of the Honor Code. Students who wish to do this will need to use their Lynx Bucks or Bonus Bucks.
Q: What are Lynx Bucks, and how do they work?

Q: When can I use my meal plan?
The meal plan is effective at the beginning of each semester term. The first meal served is typically dinner on the Sunday before the first day of classes for that term. The last meal served for the semester term will be the breakfast meal following the last day of final exams for that semester term. All scheduled serving days are in accordance with the College academic calendar and are subject to change if the calendar should be revised. Meal plans are not active during academic breaks.
