More like 80% of those people were confused on which side of the scale was satisfied and strongly dissatisfied. Fordham is notorious for misrepresenting the views of their students, which includes disregarding the constant complaints posed against Sodexo. Getting rid of Sodexo will be one of the greatest things to happen to Fordham in the years I’ve attended this school, unless they replace them with a company of equal or worse stature. Perhaps Fordham might consider allocating more expenses towards our nutrition, rather than their grotesquely large and unnecessary administrations salary.

I know right? How did they even pull that 80% number off? Is it because they conduct surveys at the beginning of the school year when the freshmen dont realize how bad the food is yet? Or they just hand pick a group of students? Seems that theres a way that somehow they gamed the system,.

I absolutely refuse to believe that 80% of students are “satisfied or highly satisfied” with Sodexo’s services. The food is atrocious still and no changes have been made, it is more than disappointing. If Sodexo is our provider again I will not be getting a meal plan next year because it is ridiculously over priced and the food we are getting is absolute s**t and will not continue to destroy my body.

I agree. They have been cutting corners in every way possible, like using lower quality roast beef at the deli station and replacing smoked salmon with salmon cream cheese. What do they mean by internal surveys? If 80% of students are really that satisfied according to their own research, why are we still on the Princeton worst food list to begin with?

I can guarantee it that Sodexo paid its way up to rank 13 in Princeton Review. No way they legitimately earned it. They didn’t improve their food standards in any way over the last 3 years I was here. If anything, they decreased the value of the meal plans, don’t offer any good vegetarian options and don’t even stock the fruits section properly in the caf.
