Campus Information
Campus Dining
There are many options available on-campus (cafeteria, food court, etc.) and off-campus. Please note that due to the small number of students/conference groups on campus during the summer, many campus facilities keep limited hours throughout the five weeks. (example: the 2nd Floor Dining Room in the Student Center will serve three meals a day Monday - Thursday, and on Friday serves breakfast and lunch.) The summer dining schedule and list of on-campus dining options is available on the Dining Services website.
- Follow the Food Truck in Kent and on Kent State campus.
