Lee Daniello Staff Writer On Jan. 9, at 3:15 p.m., students with a golden ticket in hand began lining up awaiting the opening of the remodeled Atrium. At 4 p.m., the doors opened for the Atrium preview party, where students and faculty were able to sample the foods offered by the new Atrium. Upon entry through the new double doors, the relocated Wolf Xpress is on the left behind a second set of glass doors. The new design and in- terior color scheme was noted as a wel- come change by previewers. “It’s very modern and really pretty,” said Andrea Mas- sa, a sophomore in animal science, as she and her guest, Chris Touchberry, a sophomore in aerospace engi- neering, decided which kind of food to try. “There’s more space here. In the old Atrium, it was hard to get be- hind the registers because it was so narrow. This one is more spacious, and there’s more people standing around,” said Touchberry. University Dining officials, like Kitty Lewis, Dining retail and branding operations specialist, praised the efforts of University Dining employees who worked for several hours to prepare food and clean before the preview party. “We’re very proud of the out- come, and proud of the employ- ees. This was a team effort that University Dining employees put together,” said Lewis. Dining officials say that they hope students and staff will be pleased with the outcome of the new Atrium. Kelly Brackett, Din- ing and Marketing Specialist, said, “I think that people will feel really positive about it. We’ve gotten a very positive response so far, in person and on the online forum.” Along with the new design and modern feel, customers at the new Atrium can get new options of food. “I tried some of the new food. I loved the sushi and the Asian food. It was re- ally good. And they have a new parfait, and some sort of pound cake,” said Kristen Baughman, a grad student in extended education. Along with the sushi and Asian food, there will also be pizza and pasta, a salad bar, and 9 drink stations inside the new Atrium. “I’ve only had the pizza so far, but it’s really good. I wish I didn’t only have one semester of this, being a se- nior graduating in May. I like the fact that there’s eight, maybe more, drink stations,” said Bri- ant Robey, a senior in chemical engi- neering. In accordance with the preview party, the Atrium was decorated with festive balloons around the building, with a large bal- loon arch and red carpet adorning the double door entryway. “This was a lot of hard work and concentrated determination to get the food prepared and get the place cleaned up. It’s beautiful, and more open. More employees can work here, and with Wolf XPress right here, people can make a copy and eat all in one place,” said University Dining Workers, Charmaine Roundtree, Re- nee Young, and Nahja Reid.
