Halls serve Christmas meals
By PAM MILLER
'Twas the night before finals
Twas the night before finals. And all through the residence halls, students line up waiting for what some people, such as Janet Feltner, Topeka junior, think is one of the best meals of the semester.
The special Christmas dinner, served the evening of stop day each year, is a tradition at KU residence halls. Feltner, a Lewis Hall resident and an employee in its cafeteria, said she thought the Christmas meal was even better than the Thanksgiving dinner.
Lenoir Ekdahl, director of food services for student housing, said Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall had special Christmas dinners even before she came to the University 31 years ago.
A larger-than-usual array of relishes, vegetables, desserts, salads, nut breads and rolls are served buffet style on decorated tables. Students can choose between sirloin strip and faint shrimp at all halls except GSP-Corbain, which is serving Cornish game hen.
For this particular meal, 40 percent more than the normal amount of food is ordered and used in the cafeteria. Ekdahl said. Usually, food services spends $3.30-$3.40 a person each day for food. But about the Christmas meal costs about $4.80 a person.
Preparation begins early for the meal. At Ellsworth Hall yesterday, cooks were making and decorating a gingerbread house that will be the
centerpiece on the dessert table,
Gingerbread men, cheese balls,
angel food cakes and ice rings for
the punch bowl were already in the
freezer.
Julie Beemer, assistant food service manager at Ellsworth, said the best thing about the special holiday dinners was receiving compliments from the students.
The hardest thing for the cafeteria workers, she said, is trying to do so much in so little time.
"The added little touches take time," she said.
"We still have to roll some cookies out yet. Thank goodness we still have tomorrow," she said.
Beemer showed one of the ginger-bread men that a student had decorated earlier Sunday morning.
Feltner said that on the day of the meal student workers would come early, about 1 p.m., to put tablecloths down and decorate the dining rooms.
Eric Rabe, McPherson sophomore, said that the special dinners at Hashinger Hall were really good. The thing he appreciated most about the Christmas dinner was the atmosphere.
Feltner said of the dinner. "It really makes you feel in the Christmas spirit. You know, when you're up here by yourself, you're not with your family. So this is kind of like a family situation."
