Please add any other comments concerning beverage products:

1. A larger selection of soda would be great!
2. Actually I think it would serve well if the school did offer oth brands of pop.
3. As a rule I do not drink soft drinks and it doesn't affect me at all.
4. Beer would be nice!!! :)
5. Both companies sounds like great idea
6. Both Pepsi, and Coke would be nice.
7. bottled spring water
8. bottled water would be good also
9. Campus needs more variety especially considering that some people do not care for soda. I would like to see more things like Arizona or sobe green teasand other teas along with Sobe fruit juices. THANK YOU.
10. Could have cans of juice.
11. Could you send the results of this survey to the students.
12. Definetly have to have mountain dew, its the most widely liked soft drink.
13. Even though there may be a few small benefits to Pepsi, in the long run I think staying with Coke would be a positive move. There are so many choices under the Coca-cola umbrella, I just couldn't see the selection matched by Pepsi. Lots of people drink Mountain Dew but not everybody.
14. Exclusive contracts given to either company should result in the donated "scholarship" money being distributed proportional to students enrollment numbers. Athletics should only get the percentage that their students are in the campus population.
15. Fill up the machines more often!
16. fountain pop is best
17. Gatorade, it is better than powerade. Water sucks gatorade is better!
18. Get more juice machines or choices, not just pop.
19. Get pepsi in here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I need my mountain dew!!!!!!!!!!
20. Get Pepsi!! we all want Mt. Dew!!! that way we can also have 7up for when we get sick!!
21. GET SOME TWO-LITERS in stock at morsals
22. Go for the $$. if someone wants an exclusive and are willing to pay for the privilege, let's take the $$ and improve our school
23. Have a sign indicating who reimburses for "lost money" within a machine.
24. Hope you do both. Because if you do not have COKE on campus would bring from home or drink water
25. I do not understand why Coke has a monopoly on beverages at the university. It seems to me that competition with Pepsi would keep prices down and give the students a much needed choice in choosing what they drink. I do not mind some of the Coke products, but I have to go out of my way to choose something else other than Coke. If Powere Aide is the only sports drink why can't Gatoraid be offered as well. It is a far superior product.
26. I don't believe that any prices in any vending machines should increase due to the fact that EVERYTHING in Morsels is way over priced, and we are students...every little penny counts right now...This shouldn't even be a topic of discussion.
27. I don't like to drink pop.
28. I feel as though more people enjoy Pepsi products more than Coke.
29. I feel that Pepsico products are much better and would love to see pepsi distributers on campus.
30. I feel there is a need for a Pepsi machine in this school.
31. I feel we should have both Pepsi and Coke products.
32. I for one hope we stay with coke products.
33. I hate coke, LOVE PEPSI!!!!
34. I like both Coke and Pepsi products, so it doesn't make any difference to me.
35. I like buying bottled water from vending machines. I don't and won't buy pop. I think you should promote bottled water instead of pop. Pop is really not good for people to drink.
36. I like coke products better than Pepsi Products. I like how you guys do the whole pop situation here at UMC
37. I like juice and would prefer to spend my money on a can of juice than a can of pop. I have been to several places where they have juice machines just like pop machines. Welches makes canned juice. UMC should look into this.
38. I like Mountain Dew the best and would prefer the 20 oz bottles. I would pay up to a dollar for the bottles.
39. I like my pop
40. I like products from both companies and I think others do too. If we could have them both on campus with no extra cost to the university I would say great. If it becomes a big hassels to have both I would say then pick coke.
41. I like the set up the way it is. 12oz. and 20oz. machines. COKE
42. I only drink Coke products. So for me to spend money on Campus for pop and food snacks there would have to be coke machine on Campus.
43. i prefer pepsi over coke
44. I really think we should have both Pepsi and Coke Products here.
45. I really think we should support both products. No company should be able to have a monopoly on the market. A little competition never hurts.
46. I think both, Coke and Pepsi Products should be available to the Campus.
47. I think Coke products should stay at UMC.
48. I think it is idiotic that there is only coke products on this campus...everyone should have the ability to choose if they want coke or pepsi products. It's not right! I don't care if coke is cheaper...in the long run, it all evens out because people are happier and buy more. It's not good marketing strategy to only have one brand available!
49. I think it would be nice to have Pepsi products in the vending machines instead of Coke.
50. I think it would be nice to have pepsi products on campus vs coca cola.
51. I think it's pretty sad that a University only has Coke.
52. I think that it would be a good idea to have both of the soft drinks brands on campus so that there is more of a selection for both the students and the faculty as well. I do not think that a slight price increase will affect anyone.
53. I think that most students would be willing to pay a little fraction more in order to have a larger variety of beverages on campus.
54. I think that the products that we have in morsels are good in variety. You also have to think about those of us who do not drink pop but drink water and fruit juice. The powerade and apple juice are good
