Tiger Dining is revamping almost all campus eateries and they will begin this summer.
Before leaving campus in May, make sure to brush up on what will change. For those staying on campus for the summer, continue to check our website for updates on construction and openings.
Here's what you need to know about Tiger Dining changes:
Student Center:

Foy Union:

- The facility will be renovated into a dining hall. Students will pay one price to choose their meal from a variety of stations, similar to the Wellness Kitchen.
- There will be stands tailored to students with allergies, special diets or restrictions. Vegan and vegetarian options will be available here, as well.

The Village:

There will be dining facilities added to the Graduate Business Building and Engineering Success Center once construction is completed.
