There are a number of reasons why the Ernie Davis Dining Center is one of the most popular places to eat on campus. The quality of food, the wide variety of options, and the open, airy nature of the facility all make for a busy place around mealtime. Now, the news is beginning to spread.
USA Today has listed Ernie Davis as one of the best in the nation, ranking it 19 among the 36 top dining centers at colleges and universities nationwide.
The report was produced for USA Today by Spoon University. Editor in chief Alexis O’Connell writes, “Ernie Davis Hall is a student favorite. This dining hall includes a salad bar, Sbarro pizza, wrap and sandwich bar, vegan and gluten free stations, and an entree station. Ernie Davis hall boasts a hot-entree bar with stir fry, make-your-own pasta and omelets, too.”
As is the case with all of the dining centers on campus, Ernie Davis provides options for a diverse student population.
