Vending Machines – New Location
You can now find traditional vending machines in the basement area of Gullixson! These machines take cash or card. Unfortunately, due to lagging sales, the machines in OCC have been removed. We hope the proximity of the new machines closer to more of the campus classes will provide increased convenience!
