Canteens should rise to food delivery challenge

IN A SURVEY conducted by Beijing Youth Daily, eight of the 18 top universities in Beijing expressed their disapproval of students getting meals delivered to dormitories. This has provoked different opinions from both students and the educators, the newspaper says:

First of all, it shouldn't be taken as an objection to food deliveries in general. The university managements just banned the delivery staff from entering the campus. Therefore, we should clarify the debate.

If the disapproval is because of the concerns about campus safety, then the universities should improve their fences. Either enhancing their campus security or changing the manner of the students collecting their food deliveries will likely work better.
