8.1.3 On the requests of international students

Recommendation Item

We with a further enrichment of the halal menu.

Please have menus that international students can easily choose foods from.

Countermeasure/implementation method

(1) We started to serve halal menu at the coop cafeteria of the Suzukakedai Campus as well starting on the first term of 2011.

(2) We are thinking of offering a new menu using halal chicken.

(3) We will offer a halal "bento" (box lunch) menu.

(4) We intend to develop cafeterias where all international students can enjoy eating. More specifically,、

(i) all menu items will be assigned numbers so that orders can be taken by the numbers rather than the names.

(ii) Menus will be written in Roman characters.

(5) In order to make the cafeterias friendlier to international students, we will have a place of talks with ternational students to collect your opinions.

8.1.4 On health-oriented menus and volume-oriented menus

Recommendation Item

Please consider enrichment of both health-oriented and volume-oriented menu.

Countermeasure/implementation method

(1) We will be enhancing "vegetable-rich menus" in planning the menus from now on.

(2) The calorific points and the Third Group points of the nutritional value of each menu item will be shown more explicitly.

(The nutritional values of the co-op cafeteria menu items are now shown on the web site "Gakushoku.corp" http://gakushoku.coop/ ）

(3) "Bento" menu of the Ookayama cafeterias is renewed starting the second term of 2011.

Health-oriented menu····Healthy Bento (no fried items, rice 100g)

Volume-oriented menu···"Gattsuri Bento"

(4) In coordination with Tokyo Tech's group promoting the "Table For Two" Movement, we are developing "Less than 800 kcal"menu in alignment with their philosophy.

(Table For Two: A social movement started in Japan trying to solve the hunger in under-developed nations and the life-style related diseases at the same time. A plan to donate 20 yen from the earnings of each TFT menu item to the school lunch in underdeveloped countries.)

(5) We will develop a bowl-full menu items along the line of the volume-oriented "Gattsuri Bento."

8.2.1 On cafeteria congestion

Recommendation Item

Continued best efforts will be much appreciated.

Countermeasure/implementation method

(1) In the first term of 2011, with the help of "Design Thinking" class students of the Management Engineering Graduate School,

the layouts of tables in the First and Second Cafeterias of Ookayama Campus were rearranged.

(2) The table arrangement of the First Cafeteria is being reviewed to be upgraded at the start of 2012 new school year from the standpoint of grouping the users into several categories, e.g., "tables for quick-lunch" users.

(3) Although we thought bento (box lunch) sale was a good idea to alleviate the cafeteria congestion, we came to discontinue it facing the ruling of the local government (Public Health Center) in March 2011. We believe that it came to be the highest sales booth and contributed to increase the congestion eventually. We intend to reopen the bento sales by finding a proper space that satisfies the requirements of "business license for food-marketing."
