New year, new food. Spring 2017 is upon us and we’re all back to on-campus dining. While some old favorites like Chick-fil-A and Chicken Salad Chick are still around, there’s some new changes in our dining options.
Unfortunately, some of the Auburn University Dining websites have not been updated since 2014, which makes it difficult to know what’s going on with the food on campus. Tiger Dining does have social media accounts for fast updates, but that gets annoying when you’re scrolling for info and wind up unsuccessful. Here’s a quick glance at what’s new for 2017.
