Ramadan Mubarak! As Ramadan begins the evening of Tuesday, February 17th, we'd like to share with you the resources available to students, staff, and faculty on campus who are observing this month of fasting.
For those who wish to take their meals out before sundown, we will have disposable takeout containers available. The Halal station at Morrison Dining will be open for the duration of Ramadan, and Halal meals will be served at Keeton House Dining Room at dinner.
“Pre-fast” meal boxes are available for pickup the night before for those who would like to eat before sunrise, before their daily fast begins. Pre-fast meals are available at Cook House Dining Room, Okenshields (on weekdays), and Morrison Dining.
