Wide Variety Resources For UT Students

The University provides a variety of complimentary services to assist students, including temporary food assistance, free laptop rentals, and a headshot booth. Among the services offered are:

Food Pantry The Student Union food pantry provides temporary food assistance for students in need. Most of the pantry’s food has a long shelf life, and includes items such as canned sauces, microwavable meals, peanut butter, and bulk bags of pasta and cereal. The pantry also can also provide hygiene items such as deodorant, paper towels, toilet paper, and shampoo. Students receive ten dollars worth of merchandise each visit and are limited to one visit per week. Item prices range from 25 cents to two dollars. Students may be eligible for additional items if they are experiencing a qualifying event, such as job loss. Located in room 2514 of the Student Union, the food pantry is open from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. every Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday.

Computer Rentals – Business majors or students enrolled in a business class may borrow a Dell Latitude Laptop for 24-hours without a fee. Rentals are available every Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. They are available for overnight use, but not for weekend use. Students who qualify should bring their Rocket Card to Stranahan Hall 5007 to complete the rental process.

Sensory Room – The sensory room is a room dedicated to providing students a space where they can decompress. The room is decorated with a huge bean bag chair and alternative lighting such as LED galaxy lights and curtain fairy lights. It contains Rubik’s cubes, kinetic sand, noise-canceling headphones, coloring pages, and fidget toys. The sensory room is located within the Office of Access and Disability in Rocket Hall. It is open from 8:15 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Resource Room – The Resource Room is filled with craft supplies including markers, colored paper, construction paper, stamps, and stencils for students to use free of charge. Its purpose is to give students in campus organizations creative supplies. It is in Student Union room 1532 and is available Monday through Friday from 8:15 a.m. to 5 p.m. Swipe access is required to enter, or the building manager can make the space accessible. Headshot Booth – The Headshot Booth is on the Student Union’s first floor, down the hall from the Resource Room. The Headshot Booth is a self-serve photo booth that offers business-quality headshots for professional use. The Headshot Booth is used to help boost UT students’ career readiness. It walks students through the process of taking a professional photo of oneself, providing tips along the way and allowing students to edit their finished products afterwards.
