The Tusculum Chick-fil-A will offer breakfast, lunch and dinner options and will be open to the community.<\/p>\n<p>While the store will open at 7 a.m. on the first day of operation, regular hours will be Monday through Thursday, 7:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Friday and Saturday, 7:30 a.m. to 8 p.m.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is an exciting time for Tusculum University and our entire community,\u201d said Dr. James Hurley, president of Tusculum University. \u201cChick-fil-A brings a new level of commitment to our students that is second to none. Chick-fil-A has always been a very popular eatery with students, and I promised them last July we would build one on campus. Thanks to our Board of Trustees and our new partnership with Chartwells, we will make good on that promise. We welcome Chick-fil-A to our community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Tusculum University Student Government Association President Kris Adams thanked Dr. Hurley for his efforts to not only bring a Chick-fil-A to campus, but also to improve food service across campus.<\/p>\n<p>At the event, Dr. Hurley worked with restaurant staff behind the counter and handed out meals to the guests of the ribbon cutting who were treated to a special meal sponsored by the university. The Chick-fil-A Cow was also present for photographs and to encourage everyone to \u201cEat More Chikin.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Codell Construction Company was the contractor on the property.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?feature=youtu.be&amp;v=WoQIbs1ayWQ&amp;app=desktop\">Link to the live feed of the event.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16455\" src=\"https:\/\/www3.tusculum.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ribboncuttingweb.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"576\" height=\"384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www3.tusculum.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ribboncuttingweb.jpg 576w, https:\/\/www3.tusculum.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ribboncuttingweb-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www3.tusculum.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ribboncuttingweb-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www3.tusculum.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ribboncuttingweb-120x80.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www3.tusculum.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ribboncuttingweb-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www3.tusculum.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ribboncuttingweb-50x33.jpg 50w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More than 200 people attended a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony and Grand Opening of the Tusculum University Chick-fil-A on Friday.<\/p>\n<p>The restaurant officially opens to the public on Monday, July 30.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[131,91,7,19,1,6],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>More than 350 people attend Ribbon Cutting Ceremony and Grand Opening of the Tusculum University Chick-fil-A :: Tusculum University<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www3.tusculum.edu\/news\/parent-news\/2018\/more-than-200-people-attend-ribbon-cutting-ceremony-and-grand-opening-of-the-tusculum-university-chick-fil-a\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"More than 350 people attend Ribbon Cutting Ceremony and Grand Opening of the Tusculum University Chick-fil-A :: Tusculum University\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"More than 200 people attended a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony and Grand Opening of the Tusculum University Chick-fil-A on Friday.
