      1. Rose from BUDS will be the faculty advisor for cooking house
      2. They have restaurant nights and community service events planned
      3. Where would be best for the house?
         1. Wayland would be better because it is closer to main campus
         2. Nice to learn from the example of other program houses
         3. Closer to the Ratty, locations of events
         4. kitchens in Wayland are significantly nicer
      4. Currently there are no special housing needs.
      5. They are not a co-op, do not feed selves exclusively through cooking house

      7. They will go down to the 7-meal plan.
   2. Plantations and Wayland are both not ADA-compliant, both are difficult to retrofit.
