The To-Go Station at the Charles E. Daniel Dining Hall

The Dining Hall features a To-Go station, located on the bell tower side of the Dining Hall.  This is a great area for students who want to grab a warm meal but don’t necessarily have the time to eat in the DH.  The To-Go Station is open for breakfast and lunch Monday through Friday, and dinner Monday through Thursday.   Breakfast features traditional breakfast fare like pastries and muffins, scrambled eggs, grits and biscuits and gravy.   Lunch and Dinner feature pre-made salads, a self-serve deli station, one hot entrée, one vegetarian entrée, a starch and a vegetable.  The To-Go station is available for 1 meal swipe.

 Meal Plan Breakdown

Your Furman University student ID will double as your meal card.  This will be your form of payment into any of our dining facilities, so hang on to it!  Your meal plan will come with a set number of meals available to you for use in the Dining Hall or To-Go Station, and a balance of Food Points. 

All Freshman will have an Unlimited meal plan, which is just that, unlimited.  You will have unlimited access to the Dining Hall during it’s operating hours.  That means that you can come and go as you please, for lunch, for a snack, or to just hang out with friends.

Food Points

Food points come with you meal plan, and can be used at any of our dining locations, but are extra useful in all of our retail locations.  On the Unlimited plan, you will receive $260 in food points, which works like a debit card on your Furman ID.  Your balance of food points will become active the same day and time your meal plan becomes active, 5 PM on Monday, August 24th.  Your balance will carry over from the Fall semester to the Spring semester, but not from the Spring to the Fall.  Any remaining balance of food points on your account will be lost at the end of the Spring Term.

Campus Cash

If food points just aren’t enough to satisfy your Einstein’s, Chick-Fil-A, and Moe’s cravings, you can add additional money to your account.  This Campus Cash spends the same as your food points, with one added bonus.  While food points expire at the end of the Spring term, Campus Cash does not.  Your Campus Cash balance will remain with you as long as you are enrolled at Furman.  Upon your exit from Furman, any remaining balance of Campus Cash will be refunded to you.  Campus Cash can be added by contacting the Student Business Center @ 864-294-2027.

Guest Meals

With the unlimited meal plan you are given 3 guest meals per semester.  These guest meals can be used at the dining hall for your parents, out of town guests, or another student who forgot their Pala Card.  Once you have used all 3 of your guest meals they are gone until the next semester.
