As Harvard University’s dining staff strike continues, the school has added an extra $25 to student accounts, providing more flexibility for students to eat outside of the dining halls, The Harvard Crimson reports.
The extra funds were added to Crimson Cash and BoardPlus accounts, which students can use to pay for food both on and off campus.
Aside from some technical issues with payment processing, students are grateful for the extra money, according to The Harvard Crimson.
Since the strike began two weeks ago, students have complained about food quality in the dining halls, saying that many meals are served undercooked and that students with allergies and dietary restrictions are unable to find out what ingredients are being used.
