Delivered March 5, 2024
Presented by Guido Hartray, Marvel Architects | Audra Tuskes, Marriott | Scott Wright, Columbia University in the City of New York
Planning Types: Campus Planning

In our hybrid environment, it’s more important than ever to pull people away from their devices to build community and connection on campus. Food has the power to bring students and faculty from different backgrounds together and provide a fundamental academic experience. Through campus and workplace examples, we’ll show how food venue design can set a positive tone for interaction and support meaningful connections and wellbeing. Come learn how to plan campus food venues that serve an academic purpose, refine venue goals, and inform venue design through operations to make it more impactful and sustainable.

Learning Outcomes:
  1. Evaluate the ways in which food venues contribute to an institution’s academic mission.
  2. Discuss how food venues can facilitate serendipitous interaction and build campus communities that support learning and belonging.
  3. Identify important space and service needs for campus food venues to successfully foster healthy, educational interaction and connection.
  4. Apply principles of hospitality and sustainability to campus food venues to create an environment of connection and wellbeing.
