THE CALM AFTER THE STORM Many students rush to the lunch lines in the hopes to get their lunch first. The rush causes significant chaos and doesn’t give many students a chance to get their lunches. This has also become an unfair advantage for those with further classes who can’t make it to the LeVecke fast enough. Many complain about lines promoting cutting and how frustrating it is to just get lunch. Another complaint stems from not being able to find friends to sit with at lunch now with changing lunch schedules that are forcing friend groups to break. “I prefer having upper lunch because I can converse with more friends since I rarely see them after school,” Calilung said. “Upper lunch is also less crowded and the food line is shorter.”

It not only provides service hours and [...] free lunches, [but you also get to] meet different people.”
