How money spent on campus, stays on campus.
- Sam is a Dairy Science major. He is one of 5,000 Cal Poly freshmen.
- Sam is on the dining plan and uses his declining balance to eat at Mustang Station. He is one of Campus Dining’s 20,000 daily guests.
- Sam’s slice of pizza and drink purchase helps fund jobs for 2,000 Campus Dining student employees. It also helps support on-campus facilities like Doerr Field, which Cal Poly Corporation donated $750,000 to build.
- Additionally, his purchase funds Learn by Doing initiatives on campus like the student-run Cal Poly Creamery. Cal Poly Corporation contributes $1M back to the university annually.
