Hungry yet, Highlanders?

Let’s face it.
Food is a pretty big deal in the lives of college students, and Highlanders, you are no exception.
Radford University has a dozen different on-campus dining establishments to keep you well-fed and prepared for whatever stands in your way.
Pulling an all-nighter? Starbucks to the rescue!
Running late for class? Grab a sandwich and some waffle fries to go from Chick-fil-A.
Need an energy boost after that hard workout? A protein-packed salad from Create will help you recover.
Craving comfort food? Stop by Dalton Kitchen for their famous fried chicken.
