Suwannee Room upgrade
The renovation project is the latest in a series of dining improvements announced at FSU since it signed a 10-year deal valued at $173 million earlier this year with Sodexo.
The Suwannee Room sits in the middle of campus and serves “thousands" of meals daily. The concept will focus on sustainability, health and wellness.
High-tech kiosk ordering systems and table tracking technology will be available for late-night orders.
Students also will have direct access to nutritionists.
It includes an expansion of the “My Zone” station, which will be free of peanuts, tree nuts and gluten — in response to requests by students with dietary concerns.
While the upgrade is underway to meet the needs of today’s students, the room’s noted architectural elements will remain untouched, including its vaulted ceilings.
The current renovation is the first since the facility was reopened in 2006.
The Suwannee Room was originally built in 1913 and served students as a dining hall until the late 1960s, before being turned into office space.
