Thanksgiving in Hamilton Hall

Every year, about a week before Thanksgiving break, Ohio Dominican University hosts a Thanksgiving dinner for students, faculty, and staff in Hamilton Hall.  The staff dims the lights and puts table cloths and centerpieces on all of the tables.  They serve turkey and pumpkin pie and other holiday-themed foods.  This year, I was very impressed by the salad that was served.  It was so good I ended up eating four servings of it!  This salad was made with spinach leaves, strawberries, mandarin oranges, candied pecans, and a poppy-seed dressing.  Honestly, it was quite possibly the most delicious meal I've ever eaten in my life.  I plan to attempt to re-create it for my own family's Thanksgiving this week.  I let one of the workers know how much I enjoyed the salad and he was very pleased.  The Sodexo staff has been trying to get student feedback to help them improve our dining experiences and I have to say that they have been doing a very good job.  I am very impressed and I have heard many other students saying they have been pleased with the improvements they have seen especially in the meals offered in Hamilton.  Hopefully, we will be seeing even more positive changes in the dining hall.  Maybe I'll get lucky and get to consume another delicious salad in Hamilton Hall before I graduate in December!  :-)
