Dining Services
Where to go to get information.
The Living & Learning Center can respond to all meal plan inquires. The Business Office is where to go to add funds into your Mountain Cat Cash account. If you experience problems with your ID card, the ID center can assist you.
What is CBORD?
CBORD Privilege Control System (PCS) is a powerful windows-based program that allows patrons to make cashless purchases on campus. Here at Pitt-Johnstown, we use the CBORD system to accommodate cashless purchases at all food service locations as well as at the campus bookstore. Account data for each patron is stored on a server which is accessed via a magnetic strip of the reverse side of a patron’s ID card. There are multiple CBORD communication terminals located throughout the campus that can read the magnetic strip on an ID card.
WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT ACCOUNTS MAINTAINED BY CBORD?
There are currently two types of accounts maintained by our CBORD system. Foremost is the meal plan account which patrons can use only at dining facilities. The second account is known as the Mountain Cat Cash account (formerly recognized as Bonus Points) which can be used to make purchases at any food service venue as well as at the campus bookstore.
IS CBORD LINKED TO ANY OF THE VENDING MACHINES?
No. However, patrons can transfer funds from their Mountain Cat Cash account onto the vending strip portion of their ID card. Patrons can then use their ID card to make purchases at various vending machines located throughout the campus. They also have the option of adding cash directly to their ID card for vending purposes at one of three revalue stations. One revalue station is located in the Owen library, while the other two can be found in the LLC Laundry room and in the Student Union building. Once funds are transferred from the Mountain Cat Cash account to the vending strip they can
not
be transferred back and can only be used at campus housing laundry facilities, soda machines and at copier locations. Money that is inadvertently transferred from Mountain Cat Cash to vending can not be refunded. Currently, the maximum amount that can be maintained on the vending strip at any given time is $20.
Important reminder
- funds transferred to the vending strip can NOT be used at any of the dining facilities and can NOT be refunded.
WHAT’S NEW THIS SEMESTER WITH CBORD?
Four new state-of-the-art Micros Touch screen terminals were recently purchased. Two of these new terminals are located at the Tuck shop, one is at Chaser’s restaurant, with the most recent one placed in service at the new Jazzmans Cafe'. The addition of a second new terminal at the Tuck Shop allows for cashiers to expeditiously handle increased traffic volume during the peak dining periods. In addition, a new Lyric CBORD terminal was purchased and made operational at the Varsity Café, while a second one was added to the main dining facility in the Student Union building. These two new CBORD Lyric terminals also allow for faster communications to the server for retrieving patron account information.
