If you haven\u2019t had the sushi yet, go check it out! I was so excited about this and Terri was too. She told me, \u201cIt\u2019s a great addition to our college. I mean, the kids love it.\u201d\u00a0 She said that the staff get 200 sushi plates each Monday, 100 for lunch and 100 for dinner. \u201cWe can\u2019t keep it. Within an hour at lunch, it\u2019s gone.\u201d Of course, because of the high demand, the Cavern staff would love to increase the amount of sushi they provide. \u201cIt\u2019s a price thing,\u201d Terri told me, \u201cand it\u2019s about keeping it safe, we have to have room to store it.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I learned while talking to Terri that some of the new changes in Cavern aren\u2019t completely visible to the eye. She told me, \u201cI\u2019m not really a red meat person, but the hamburgers this year are fresh and they are just awesome.\u201d There are also new fruit and vegetable options. With the use of fresh ingredients this year, as students, we can be healthy and happy knowing our school is providing us with safe food choices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The last change that Terri spoke with me about was the continued changing of decor in Cavern. \u201cWe\u2019re going to be getting new table-tops,\u201d Terri told me, tapping on the top of the table she was sitting at. The new tables will match the new paint on the walls and new chairs. Students can also look forward to pictures of the \u201cfirst\u201d Cavern going up on the walls around the room. The pictures will act as a throwback for students to be able to imagine what Cavern used to be like when it was first created.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Talking to Terri Saunders reminded me that the staff at RC really do care about the student body, and they are constantly working to make changes that improve our experience on campus. Who knows what changes they\u2019ll make next?<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by Carey Linkous It seems like Cavern at Roanoke College is constantly changing this semester.
