LunchHours_socialmedia-FINAL-v2-150x150Have you ever wondered about the many ways a librarian at Pendergrass can help you?  Would you like to get to know your librarians better?  Then invite your librarian to lunch for Lunch Hours!

Starting this Monday, March 23, undergraduate and graduate students can invite any faculty or staff member to lunch – free of charge – through Lunch Hours.  The Office of the Dean of Students has partnered with Volunteer Dining to provide both you and the faculty or staff member this free lunch on several Tuesdays and Fridays throughout the remainder of the spring semester.  Enjoy your free lunch at Presidential Court Cafe, the University Center, or Southern Kitchen.

The available lunch dates are:

  • Tuesday, March 24
  • Friday, March 27
  • Tuesday, April 7
  • Friday, April 10
  • Tuesday, April 21
  • Friday, April 24

So how do you invite your librarian to lunch?  Simply ask your librarian in person, by email, or phone.  Then contact the Office of the Dean of Students at dos@utk.edu to reserve a pair of lunch passes to pick up before your meal.
