Workers and Students Discuss Cafeteria Meals This year the price of a lunch was raised to 50 cents. Many students feel the food is not worth the rise , and because of this, brown bags and thermoses have returned to the cafeteria. In spite of the price increase, the cafeteria operates with a large deficit. The state has strict requirements regarding the meals, and the menus are developed by state agencies. Most of the food in the 800 lunches served daily is prepared “from scratch by the cooks, who believe the students are friendly but could be more appreciative. 21

Nothing To Do in City? There’s nothing to do.” complain teenagers, but some find a few activities available. Last summer, a teen center was established simply as a place to go and talk to your friends. During weekends there are movies, bowling, and skating, and the teens who are lucky enough to have jobs can work. More often, the Oil City youth, like teens in other towns with a population of about 15,000, must create their own fun.
