toward eating habits. According to figures provided by

The Frist Food Gallery hit a record of 3,500
customers served on Feb. 19.
During an average week, Frist diners go through
2,400 pounds of pizza dough and 3,500 cups of yogurt.
Dining halls in the five colleges average 4,700
meals per day Monday through Thursday: 800 for breakfast,
1,900 for lunch and 2,000 for dinner.
