In an effort to compensate for the loss of Harden Dining Hall, several changes have been made to dining facilities across campus, including name changes and seating expansions.
The grab-and-go section of downstairs McEwen had been renamed McGo and redesigned to serve dining hall food to students on the run. It is now the only dining facility that will participate in the reusable to-go container program. Sunset Strips will now be sold as Elon Chicken Strips, because Tyson revoked the university’s right to use the former name for reasons unknown, according to Linda Hurdle with campus dining services.
The couches in downstairs Colonnades have been removed to create additional seating for both upstairs and downstairs dining facilities, and 1889 Grill Room has been renovated for the same purpose. 1889 Grill Room will reopen in January when the new Lakeside and Global Dining Halls are completed.
