If you are staying in the residence Halls, Miller dining is a great option. Miller is located at the West end of campus and is a 5-7 minute walk from the SUB and the main dining tent. It will be open for breakfast lunch and dinner every day except Sunday when it will only be open for breakfast. Meals are $6.50 for breakfast, $7.50 for Lunch and $8.50 for dinner. Meals are an all you care to eat buffet. Breakfast is served from 7:00-8:00am; Lunch from noon-1:00pm and Dinner from 5:00-6:00pm. Sack lunches are available upon request 24 hours in advance.
In the Strand Union Building which is where the majority of the sessions will take place, the Union Market is open from 7:00am - 2:00pm Monday through Friday. The Union Market offers a variety of selections including a salad/sandwich bar, grill, hot dogs and Pizza.
The University is also surrounded by affordable eateries offering everything from submarine sandwiches to Korean grill.
Guests can purchase gift cards in the SUB food services office that can be used like a debit card in any of the SUB food operations including the Union Market, SRO Coffee Shop, the Sweet Shop and the bookstore. *Note, these cannot be used in Miller dining.
In addition, there are soda and snack vending machines throughout the SUB and residence halls.
I'm nursing a young child, is there a private location for this?
In the SUB we have a "Family Restroom". It is spacious and private. You can lock the door and
no-one else will be able to come in while you are nursing. We would be happy to put a chair in there
so you have someplace to sit other than the toilet.
