Dining halls opening in Shenkman and Thurston Halls this fall will seat about 544 students in total, according to documents obtained by The Hatchet.

A Shenkman Hall resident said she’s witnessed at least 10 accidents on the same block of Virginia Avenue this semester.

Officials will open the dining hall “later” during the upcoming academic year, according to a University release.

ExPat, a two-floored restaurant and bar, will also feature a podcast studio, arcade, karaoke stage and shuffleboard when it opens later this spring.

Juniors and seniors have the option to continue with the current meal plan made of a declining GWorld balance under GW’s incoming dining system.

The building has stood in Foggy Bottom for more than 100 years, serving as GW’s second women’s residence hall and a naval research center.

About 100 operations assistants will help students navigate campus services and serve as customer service representatives for residence halls.

Students have filed nearly 50 FixIt tickets for hot water shut-offs, cloudy streams of water and low sink and shower pressure this fall.
