Nope.
JSU is too busy building this as of 2 weeks ago.
Third phase near Lynch Street with mixed-use property, 400 student housing beds and a 600-space garage, office and retail space at the corner of Lynch and Dalton directly across the street from this that opened last Monday. :nod:
JSU Student's welcome public to new Student Union.
Jackson State University is welcoming the public to its new student union, starting today with the opening of The Legacy, a 700-seat dining hall featuring the cuisine of a Jamaican-born chef.
Godfrey Morgan, chef of The Legacy, will direct the preparation of such things as Asian herb-crusted pork loin, jerk chicken breast and salads, and cakes garnished with edible flowers.
The restaurant joins an Internet cafe, conference rooms, a large ballroom, a game room for students and a 250-seat movie theater that will be reserved for university use for now as features of the new building.
The union, at John R. Lynch and Dalton streets, will provide not only new amenities for students but officials are hoping it also will be their entry into an untapped source of income: the public. The school is looking to attract a daily flow of guests dining on Morgan's preparations and groups interested in booking conference space at the 125,000-square-foot, $24.5 million student union.
In case ya'll are wondering, the Union is
34,000 sqr. ft. LARGER than the
Walter Payton Complex that comes in at 93,000 sqr. feet.
