On Campus Dining Information

Southeastern and Hammond have a plethora of options when it comes to food.  It can
be overwhelming to find out where to go to eat and how to get there. Southeastern’s
Campus offers various options for dining on campus but have hours of operation that
vary during the semester breaks and the summer.  If you arrive before the on campus
facilities are open, there are still plenty of options for off campus dining located
very near campus or your apartment. In fact, many places in Hammond offer delivery
options. The information below can help you.

It is also important to remember that when you are traveling to the U.S. to remember
to eat before, during, and after a long flight if possible.  Before you leave the
airport, grab a bite to replenish yourself before arriving in Hammond and taking care
of getting yourself settled.
