The University of Tulsa has long been known for its limited amount of dining options, but thanks to renovations to the Allen Chapman Activity Center TU will soon have many more choices.

The University is relocating the University Bookstore to its own building on the south side of 11^th street, freeing up much space in ACAC. The new space is going to host eight new dining options including Panda Express, Pizza Hut, Einstein Bros. Bagels, and Garden Toss.

University of Tulsa Sophomore Nabeel Hefzi was very excited for the renovations said, “TU has always had a limited variety of places to eat, which is especially tough for those who are not on the university meal plan or do not have a car. These new restaurants combined with the existing ones will add enough variety for everyone to be pleased.”

The ACAC renovation will also include a makeover to the entrance of the building as well as to the upstairs lecture rooms.

An outdoor patio will also be added which will aid in accommodating more students at peak hours, and may even be the preferred seating when the weather is nice.

These renovations will surly make ACAC a great place to go between classes and hang out with friends, something TU has been missing. The renovations are expected to be completed for the fall 2014 semester.
