Do not get the meal plan if you are vegetarian, vegan, and/or need to know what you're eating for religious purposes. While WMU had more vegetarians and vegan options a couple years ago when I started attending in 2012, the selection has gone down which coupled with an indifference from staff has made the dining experience a frustrating experience. An example: I was told that a food item, labeled "meatless lasagna", was vegetarian only to discover ground chuck in it. I notified the student worker of the mistake in labeling and was told "It's not my fault" when I never said it was his fault, and later when I emailed food services to tell them of the mistake I was thanked but given no update on how they would improve this ongoing problem of miscommunication between the menu, kitchen, and cafeteria staff. This is not an isolated incident, with many other students I know having similar experiences.
There are a host of other problems, including a lack of parking and no clearing of snow/ice in the winter. The later resulted in a friend fracturing his ankle in a parking lot and WMU offering no compensation. The university also underpays its women, part-time staff, and other people in order to save money. This is not an ethical school whatsoever and its currently pretty corrupt.
