The station’s final name has not yet been chosen, and Geneva plans to invite students to participate in a campus contest to help name the new grille this spring. \nAnother new option, Tossed, provides a made-to-order spot allowing students to craft their own salad, wrap, or pizza. With over twenty fresh toppings, a dozen sauce flavors, and numerous combinations, the concept emphasizes flexibility and personalized flavor. \nThe Market offers an expanded grab-and-go selection for students looking for quick and convenient options. The space will feature snacks, beverages, ready-made meals, and other convenience items designed to accommodate busy schedules.\n\nThe Brig is a central gathering space for students.\n\nThe Brig (short for The Brigadoon) has long been a popular gathering space for students on campus. Located within the Student Center, it offers food options throughout the day as well as areas for studying and socializing with friends. The Riverview Café, also located in The Brig, serves Starbucks coffee and offers a cozy spot tucked away from the crowds. \nUpcoming renovations represent the first phase of broader improvements planned for The Brig. While the current project focuses on the serving area and dining stations, additional upgrades to the dining space are under consideration as part of a longer-term plan.","author":null,"publishDate":"2026-03-17","type":"News Release","title":"Dining Upgrades Planned For The Brig This Summer","imageDesc":"","url":"/article/dining-upgrades-planned-for-the-brig","blogCategories":"","id":"f7922ae8ac0a24041a1ad3b0bcf71f84","detailUrl":"/news/2026/03/dining-upgrades-planned-for-the-brig.json","sourcePath":null,"slug":"dining-upgrades-planned-for-the-brig"}}
