We see them every morning, afternoon, and evening. They are the ones who swipe, cook, and clean just to make our lives a little easier. So drum roll please…. This weeks campus CELEBS are the Noble Family Dining Hall staff.
Think about it, not all of us share the same professors or hall directors, but one thing that we all share everyday is the dining hall. Ahh yes. The magical place where we recollect over Sunday brunch, drool over soft baked cookies, or cram before our 9 AM exam.
While on my daily trip to the hummus bar, I couldn’t help but realize that I see these people day in and day out and know nothing about them but who works at what station. SOoOoO I decided to drop by and get to know the people who have to deal with us hangry smicks.
