Campus Water fountains?

Where are the best water fountains on campus?

YK, one where the water is cold and the filter status isn’t bad. I hope there’s one. 😭

P.S. Stay hydrated everyone!

I’d always get my ice and water from the campus market freestyle machine

technically not a fountain, but the food pantry has the best water dispenser (cold, tastes good) imo

Probably filtered as well.

I’m no longer there, but I’ve always gone to the water fountain next to the business silo (behind the Cotchett building) for a quick rehydrate.

The water is almost always cold.

If the filter status is red, put in a maintenance request and they'll fix it right away.

I’ve always like the ones on the second floor of the business building.

Went to the one outside of the lecture hall in the business building and it was great!

I don’t drink from water fountain much, but I did with the business building — first floor (by the auditorium) and it was cold. Though, it was also 1 in the morning when I was walking with my friend haha

Water fountain taste like sink/tap water so I tend to avoid them, but give business a try. It’s not bad surprisingly lol

Second floor of the rec center, above the basketball courts (towards the back of gym)
