Automatic Snack Center

Look familiar? Almost 34 years ago to the day, this small enclosure at the Education building's southeast end opened "for food and drink services from vending machines." This was obviously before the advent of certain corporate sponsorships (see PepsiCo), given a machine labeled "Snacks" and "Cold Drinks - Ice." And while the microwave currently residing in the "Automatic Snack Center" - as it was originally called - is probably not more than 10 years old, the building was equipped with its own "radar oven," evidently used "for heating sandwiches."
