The Best Way to Start my Day…

By Kelsey Hopper: I love breakfast! Coming to college, I was afraid that the dining halls would not be able to satisfy my love for breakfast food, but I was quickly proven wrong.

Late Nite Cafe

By: Kacie Rioux You know those three little words that everyone wants to hear. No, I am not talking about ‘I love you,’ I am talking about Late Nite Café, students’ favorite way to experience the dining halls after hours and avoid all of that annoying homework piling up.

By Kerry Coughlin, Nutrition Masters Candidate Have you tried the Sargent Choice granola?  If you dine on campus, you’ve probably grown to love it.  It’s crunchy and sweet, and the perfect topping for a bowl of yogurt and fruit.  Oh, and it’s also packed with whole grains and healthy fats, which are key components in […]

Spring Fever and Sustainable Seafood

It’s spring. Earth week is almost here. It’s finally getting warm outside (at least above freezing). Imagine this: you’re on a date at an amazing restaurant; fish is on the menu.
