To help students understand, Tim Hartlieb, general manager of Metz Culinary Management, offers insight into the rule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis has always been a rule, and it\u2019s also a state-mandated issue,\u201d Hartlieb said. \u201cThis was also done due to safety and health issues of cross-contact with dirty cups touching the spouts and possible contamination from cup to dispenser to person.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Weeks before the beginning of classes, many students had been unknowingly refilling their water bottles using the Coca-Cola Freestyle machines, which caused many students to assume that the rule was new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students were unsure of the direct consequences of taking their refilled water out of the dining hall. Some students say they were asked politely to dump the water out, not wanting to see the consequences for refusing to do so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cStudents who violate this policy will be referred to Student Affairs for disciplinary action,\u201d Hartlieb said. \u201cSince students now understand the rationale behind this policy, we don\u2019t expect the need for formal disciplinary referrals.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe appreciate everyone\u2019s compliance and continued efforts to stay healthy by keeping personal cups out of the dining hall,\u201d Hartlieb said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hartlieb would like to remind students that there are water refill stations all over campus and several near the dining hall in the Mund College Center.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>By Tavi Stallings \u201927, staff writer A strict dining hall rule was recently put into effect and has drawn student outrage and raised various questions.
