Over the summer, Chick-fil-A was upgraded from a limited express counter to a full-scale restaurant.

With this expansion, Chick-fil-A will now offer additional menu items such as kale chips and mac and cheese. To mark the grand reopening, students are invited to a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 10:30 a.m. Aug. 18 in the Student Union Building. The celebration will feature free samples and giveaways for attendees.

An open house for the public will take place from 11 a.m.-1 p.m. Aug. 23. To accommodate community residents, the University has designated a row of 30-minute parking spaces on the north side of the Student Union Building in the McClain Hall parking lot. Guests can use these spots to visit Chick-fil-A and Einstein Bros. Bagels in the Student Union Building, or Starbucks in Pickler Memorial Library. Anyone can use the 30-minute parking spaces, which are designated with special signage.

Following the reopening, all purchases for Chick-fil-A will be made at the Chick-fil-A counter.

The Chick-fil-A expansion was one of two major dining projects on campus over the summer. Ryle Hall cafeteria received some moderate renovations and upgrades in the kitchen. While the cafeteria is now fully operational, there are still some minor aspects of the project that will be completed during the semester.
