In the recent student forum featuring Metz and public safety, students were given the opportunity to ask questions, as well as hear directly from Timothy Hartlieb, the general manager of Metz. Hartlieb expressed that there was a disconnect of communication and marketing between Metz and students.
With the help of Hartlieb, Landis Brown, the dining room manager and Megan Temple, the assistant manager, Metz and La Vie will be promoting special announcements and events that Metz will be putting on for students.
For planning purposes:
10/31: Scary Carnival; Mund Dining Hall will feature Halloween-themed food, as well as a costume contest with prizes.
