6 Ways to Score Free Food and Drinks on Ohio State's Campus
When I ran out of dining dollars first semester of freshmen year, I knew that I needed to make some changes. With all the free food and drinks on campus, there's no reason any student should make the same mistakes I did. Here are six frequently untapped opportunities for free food and drink on Ohio State's campus that will save you the embarrassment of telling your parents you spent all their money on smoothies.
1. KIND bars at the RPAC
More motivation to work out. Sometimes the kind people from KIND (pun intended) will make an appearance handing out free bars at the RPAC by Juice 2.
2. Buck-i-Frenzy and the Involvement Fair
Ok, so not completely unknown, but there is a ridiculous amount of free food at both of these events. To not mention Buck-i-Frenzy or the Student Involvement fair on this list would simply be a shame.
3. Jelly, Honey, and Soy Sauce for Days
Unlike peanut butter, the little packets of jelly, honey, and soy sauce are completely free. Even if you’re not having a bagel, snag a little jelly for some future PB & J goodness.
4. Two Tea Bags, Please
5. Stress Less
Keep tabs on what’s up at the Student Wellness Center located in the RPAC. Not only do they offer free wellness and nutrition coaching, but they also have events during finals where students can grab snacks and pet dogs for some quality stress relief.
6. Coffee, Mate
Free food and drinks won't just save you money, it will also give you a nice break from typical campus cuisine. Trust me, your stomach can only take so much Scott Dining.
