specials and deals. The Pit, located on the ground floor of Wilson Commons,
offers a selection of food items including pizza, subs from Blimpies, grill
items, and the Home Zone station features daily specials including a pasta bar,
omelet bar, and other made-to-order items. The Pit also offers daily summer
specials, including Zweigle's red and white hots on Wednesdays and fish fry
on Fridays. The Common Ground Coffeehouse serves specialty beverages and desserts
including smoothies and milkshakes.
