Wheaton College Places

So what’s so special about Wheaton College?

Plenty!

It shouldn’t take you long to make that discovery,

but we thought we would give you some help learning about

the numerous activities and benefits

for faculty, staff and spouses at Wheaton College.

Anderson Commons: Lovingly called “SAGA” by students, the dining hall provides excellent food for very reasonable prices with a faculty/staff id. . “FOHTY” or “From Our House To Yours” allows the college community to order a pre-cooked meal (for four to six people) on Tuesday and carry it out on Wednesday (to reheat). Check the website for weekly menus for SAGA and for FOHTY.
