Housing Information 

De-densifying Residence Halls
Residence halls have been de-densified by temporarily converting doubles without semi-private restrooms to singles and triples/quads without semi-private restrooms to doubles. Residency requirement for all First Year and Second Year and new students have been lifted to help voluntarily reduce the numbers on campus.

Guest Privileges
Guest privileges have been suspended until further notice. Resident students are not permitted to host off-campus guests (including family and friends) in their room, apartment, or building. Additionally, resident students can only visit other residents live within the same building or tower. Example: A resident that lives on Fickes 1st Floor cannot have a guest from Dilworth. However, they can host a resident from Fickes 2nd Floor.

Lounges and Community Spaces
Lounges and community spaces in the residence halls and Chatham Apartments may be closed or have occupancy restrictions imposed. Residents must adhere to lounge/community spaces closures and any posted occupancy restrictions at all times. See FAQ below for information on community kitchens.

Safety Precautions
In order to promote safety in the dining areas, a number of changes are being put into place.

• Your daily health screening card (or ChathamU app pass) must be shown prior to entry into our facilities, and masks must be worn at all times, except when seated at a table and eating.
• A temperature-controlled tent will be setup on the Shadyside campus for additional seating and dining capacity.
• Prime dining times will be revised to adequately serve all students, while maintaining social distancing. Anderson Dining Hall will employ 30-minute reserved dining times. If at any time our dining room is at capacity, we will ask you to take either the Pick 3 option or to-go.
  
• Due to timing, all made-to-order stations will be changed into prepared items and feature an all-in-one meal.
• Eating and servery areas have been reconfigured. Tables and chairs were set up as advised by Allegheny County Health Department and CDC requirements. It is forbidden to move any tables or chairs at any time. Seating in Anderson Dining Hall and Chatham Eastside is reduced capacity and the number of chairs per table is reduced. Dining tables are on a GREEN = GO (disinfected), RED = STOP (needs cleaned) system, where guests can flip to red when finished dining.
• Anderson Dining Hall, Chatham Eastside and the Eden Hall cafeteria in the Esther Barazzone Center have served stations, Pick-3, or to-go options. Beverages remain self-served, but we have an adjusted disinfecting schedule, and will purchase equipment, where possible, to make beverages touchlessly dispensed.
• We’ve made the decision to move to all disposable plates, napkins, "silverware". All of the items, including silverware and appropriate condiments, will be served with your food at each station. We are not using our re-usable to-go containers this year.
• There is a one-way aisle into the dining space and a one-way aisle out.
  

Mobile and Grocery Ordering
Mobile orders can be placed from 11:00am-5:30pm (last pick up is 6:00pm) Friday, and Monday-Thursday 11:00am-7:30pm (last pick up is 8:00pm). Pick up locations are at Anderson or Cafe Rachel.

"How-to's" can be found on my.chatham under Dining Services documents. 

Merchants labeled "meal swipes" will accept student meal swipes or faculty/staff meals. Merchants labeled "declining balance" will accept student FLEX or cougar dollars.

Students, faculty or staff are able to purchase groceries through us and schedule a contact-less pickup. This is available at all 3 campuses. A "How-to" for placing grocery orders can be found here on my.chatham. As a reminder, students can use up to 2 meal swipes ($16)/week towards groceries.

**If you do not receive an email confirmation from any of the ordering options above (groceries or mobile), we do not have your order, and a step may have been missed in the process.

Satellite Dining Locations at Shadyside Campus
Welker Room is available for eating and studying. Café Rachel will have vegan & gluten-free entrée options available by request in the Pick-3 Program. Cafe Rachel only offers espresso beverages and serve as a Pick-3 location for a meal swipe. All seating has been removed, and the entrance/exit and traffic patterns have been adjusted.

Family Style To-Go Meals
We offer a number of to-go family style meals for Students, Faculty, and Staff. Students are permitted to use 2 meal swipes ($16) towards Family Style Meals; otherwise, credit cards are accepted. Menus are available on Instagram or Facebook. Pickup available at Shadyside Campus or Eden Hall Campus. Check your email for details throughout the semester.
