• Facilitators are invited to go to lunch with their group.  Lunch tickets for facilitators must be requested in advance.  Please e-mail your request for a lunch pass to Hillary Barrett at hbarrett@ithaca.edu.  First Year students will already be on their meal plans.
• For those Facilitators who choose to go to lunch with their students, please use the Terrace Dining Hall.
