Originally called the cafeteria, the Residence Dining Center opened in the fall of 1964. “The fully air-conditioned building will have dining room facilities capable of feeding 500 at any one time. The kitchen will be able to serve, during the course of a meal, 2500 persons.” ( The Spectrum , October 9, 1963, p. 3)
Although
serving the campus well, renovations had become necessary and by the fall
of 2003 they were just about complete. “The $1.18 million project includes
remodeling of 11,000 square feet of dining and serving facilities, plus the
incorporation of a solarium addition to the west side of the dining room.
All serving areas will be remodeled to provide better access and serving
a options for students, with the seating areas being restructured for more
variety.” ( It's Happening , June 11, 2003, p. 1)
