FSU Round Up
You always have the option to round up $0.25 as a part of our FSU Round Up program. All proceeds from this program goes directly to the Food for Thought Pantry, supporting fellow students and helping increase food access on campus. This October we’re raising the stakes as a part of End World Hunger month!
All month-long students who round up at participating dining locations will be able to add their names to our Walls of Change in Suwannee Room & Seminole Cafe. At the end of the month, we’ll randomly select 3 names from the walls to win a Grand Prize Pack!
Small change is all it takes to make a big impact. Round Up today!
Farmer's Market
We’re excited to share that October brings not one but two Farmers Markets to campus! All at our new location around the Integration Statue on Legacy Walk!
Come out, enjoy fresh local products, and connect with the community. These markets are always full of energy, good food, and great company.
