Did You Know?
Declining Dollars work the same as a debit card and allow you to purchase food at various dining facilities. You may add blocks of Declining Dollars in denominations of $15, $25, $50, or $100. Use them up before the semester is out because they do not transfer between semesters and are non-refundable.
