As students of Utah Tech University, we find it challenging to maintain our academic performance when our nutritional needs are not adequately met. The current food court options on campus do not provide us with a variety of healthy and nutritious meals. This is an issue that affects all students, faculty, and staff who rely on these services for their daily meals.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), good nutrition significantly impacts cognitive function and academic performance. It's essential that as a leading institution in technology education, Utah Tech University should also lead in providing its community with access to diverse food options that support good health.

We are calling upon the university administration to take immediate action by expanding the food court options available on campus. This would include introducing more vendors who offer healthier meal choices such as salads, whole grains, lean proteins, fruits and vegetables.

By signing this petition, you're supporting a healthier future for all members of Utah Tech University's community. Let's ensure we have access to the nutritious meals we need to fuel our minds and bodies effectively! Please sign this petition today!
