Conference Dining Information
While at BYU, conference guests may enjoy our nationally-recognized dining services. Conference organizers have selected a dining plan that best serves the needs of their participants. Options include a cafeteria-based meal plan or a Cougar Cash Card.
Meal Plans
With a meal plan, you will be eating pre-specified meals in either the Cannon Commons or the Morris Center. Your meal card will be labeled with a "C" to indicate which meals you will be eating at the Cannon Commons or an "M" if you will be eating at the Morris Center. Missed meals cannot be credited nor can the meal plan be altered for any individual guest.
Cougar Cash Cards
Education Week participants may use a Cougar Cash Card. To use the Cougar Cash Card, simply present the card when making a purchase, or "swipe" the card through the reader on the vending machines.
Cougar Cash Card Use
If you have a Cougar Cash Card, carefully read the information concerning its use provided by your conference, as there may be some restrictions on the locations where your Cougar Cash may be used. The following are possible locations where you may use your Cougar Cash:
- Cougareat Food Court
- The Skyroom Restaurant
- Museum of Art Café
- BYU Creameries
- Vending Machines
- Cannon Commons
- BYU Bookstore*
*Note: Only Cougar Cash Cards specifically authorized for the BYU bookstore will be accepted there. For your protection, you must present either your conference name tag or a photo ID with your Cougar Cash Card to make purchases at the Bookstore.
Cougar Cash Card Balance
With each purchase, the amount of the purchase is deducted and the remaining balance will be shown. You may also find out the current balance, without making a purchase, from a Dining Services cashier or at the Bookstore service desk. You may add funds to your Cougar Cash Card at any of the following locations:
- Cougareat Food Court
- The Skyroom Restaurant
- Museum of Art Café
- BYU Creameries

Lost or Stolen Cougar Cash Card
