Mercer Dining Services will also be expanding the current meal equivalency in the fall. The meal equivalency program began this past fall.
Starting in the fall of the 2015, lunch and dinner meals that include all Mercer Dining locations at the University Center and the new Einstein Bros. will be added to improve on the meal equivalency program.
Mercer University has been making several changes to improve and advance the university and its atmosphere for the students, faculty, and staff.
