Panther Pickup
PantherDining offers customers the convenience of a takeout option as an alternative to eating in the dining halls. Takeout meals can be redeemed or purchased at any dining hall during regular service hours. Customers must use PantherDining approved takeout containers to participate in the program. We strongly encourage takeout meals to be used in lieu of eating in the dining hall to help maintain social distancing.
