No matter if you work in a dining commons or retail location, you will be cross-trained for all stations at your unit. Some days you may be doing dishes, helping on a serving line, scooping ice cream, or even running a register.
What will I be doing as a Dining Services Employee?
Can I work somewhere besides a Dining Common?
Dining Services has lots of variety! Yes, we have 5 dining commons, however we also have many retail operations — some of which include: Chick-Fil-A, Barberitos, our very own Niche Pizza Co., Panda Express, Starbucks, Catering, and much more!
Do students need a Meal Plan if they work with Dining Services?
For every shift you work, you get a free meal. Most students are not scheduled for more than four hours in one day, so if you plan on eating multiple meals a day in the dining commons, yes, you will need one of our Meal Plans.
For students on the 5- or 7- day unlimited meal plan, a meal plan reimbursement is paid for each meal eaten while at work as long you meet the qualifications.
