Sodexo, Truman’s dining provider, will be shifting some of its hours of operation in an effort to match campus demand and keep costs affordable for students.
Beginning in the spring semester, Chick-fil-A will be open from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday.
Mainstreet Market in the Student Union Building will close at 7 p.m. on Fridays and Sundays. On Saturdays it will remain open until 6 p.m. with expanded grab-and-go options including soda, candy bars and other retail options.
Also in the spring semester, Sizzlin’ Salads and Spuds will be converted to a self-serve soup and baked potato bar. It will continue to operate Monday through Friday from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Sodexo has already adjusted Starbucks hours in the library, based on demand. Earlier this month, Starbucks service shifted to 7:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday, and it is now closed Saturdays and Sundays.
By adjusting hours, Sodexo is able to meet the demands of peak service times while still optimizing aspects of its operations. Employee schedules and duties will be altered for efficiency as well, and no employees will be displaced or see significant reductions in their hours. These changes will also result in a reduction of food waste.
Cumulatively, these changes will help Sodexo offset increased food costs and avoid raising prices for campus diners.
