ISC and Dining Hall Services are collaborating to bring international dishes to campus throughout the week. “With finals approaching, we wanted to help comfort students and elevate their experiences through cuisine,” said Rutuja Sonawane, ISC vice president. “We sent a survey to our affiliated RSOs (registered student organizations) and asked students what cuisines or specific items they wished to be included in the menu and forwarded these results to dining services.”
