Dine with YouUR Professor is Back!

The purpose of this program is to get to know your professor outside of the traditional classroom environment. Use this time to talk to the professor about his/her background or your background, his/her goals or your goals, or just their views on topics in general.

Invite the faculty member to breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Meet in the lobby of the Heilman Dining Center and proceed to the cashier’s station. Inform the cashier that you are dining with your professor and sign the Dine With Your Professor voucher. If you have a meal plan, your meal will be charged to the plan, however, the professor’s meal is fully funded. If you are not on a meal plan, either pay cash or use the One Card for your purchase.
