Welcome to the Hunger Games

I just couldn't let a good Hungers Games reference pass in relation to free food, so here it is. Now I understand that finding food may not be as difficult or as deathly at UVA as it is in the Hunger Games, but you will still need a tad of determination, a hatred for paying for things, and a ninja-like presence to pull it off.

Note: its UVA Employee Appreciation Week, so make a card and stop by one of their numerous free food events this week, mmm appreciation.

Tuesday 4/24:

• Biology major? There will be a Biology Garden Party from 6-7 in Garden VIII, refreshments provided.
• This may be a tad educational, but after the lecture Learning and Forgetting: The Science Behind Memory, there will be free Panera catering and Hotcakes.
• Like Dean Groves? After his lecture on conflict resolution, grab some free Raising Canes with your favorite dean.

Thursday 4/26:

• Moving to NYC? Head to the Backyard to grab free appetizers and pitchers from 8-10, courtesy of the Virginia Club of New York.

Friday 4/27:

• Read (optional)? Celebrate the 21st edition of Inkstone Magazine by eating Lemongrass and Raising Canes in Garden VIII from 12-2.
• There will be free chocolate and coffee in the Newcomb Main Lounge from 1-5, courtesy of College Council.
• Like Middle Eastern food? Head over to Newcomb Ballroom for Layaleena from 6-9, full dinner provided.
• Enjoy some art and free food at Final Fridays at the UVA Art Museum where there will be cheese and crackers,fruit, and alcohol (one free drink for those of age) from 5:30-7:30. Ruffin Gallery will also have student art shows with refreshments provided.

Saturday 4/28:

• Foxfield means that everyone will be out of commission today, and not particularly worried about your free food needs. Unless you manage to eat other peoples food on their plots (Note: this is an advanced hunting and gathering challenge), find nourishment elsewhere.
