Photo gallery Memorial Union reopens
Memorial Union’s east wing reopened Dec. 5 with the debut of the Daily Scoop ice cream shop, Badger Market, Peet’s Coffee and Tea and the Rathskeller seating area. More dining options will open in January.
The Daily Scoop's new home has a fresh, retro look and new study break treats, including the “Freshman 15” — a shareable, 15-scoop sundae.
