We're Going Cashless

Starting August 1, 2025, we're going cashless to deliver faster, more efficient service while continuing to ensure convenient access to the essential amenities that support daily life on campus. We will continue to accept credit/debit cards, mobile wallet apps, tap to pay, and Wolfbucks/Dining Dollars via the Seawolf Card.

Recovery Meal Program

The Kitchens provides recovery meals for people who are sick. The recovery meal program helps satisfy the needs of its guests and helps minimize the spread of illness. Recovery meals are available as part of the meal plan for students living in campus housing only. If a student is unable to dine in The Kitchens due to illness, they should follow the process below to obtain a recovery meal.

Process:

  1. The student who is sick should email The Kitchens Front of House Manager email address listed below at least 3 hours prior to ordering a recovery meal. The email should include the following:
    • Student’s full name
    • Phone number
    • Student ID number
    • The designated individual who will be picking up their meal and what time they wish to pick up the recovery meal during The Kitchens operational hours.
  2. The designee will then go to The Kitchens at the specified time and let the cashier know they are there to get a recovery meal. The Manager will record the recovery meal and provide a disposable container to the designee. 
  3. The designee will be able to fill the disposable container in The Kitchens dining hall. Once filled, they can return to the cashier stand to pick up a drink and soup cup lids and take it back to the student’s room.
