If you’re a hungry student at the University of Texas at Dallas, a good meal can seem so far away. Especially when it is so far away.
“I work on the north side [of campus] and have to walk all the way across campus just to get food,” said one staff member.

“UT Dallas has always been on the cutting edge of excitement,” said VP of Facilities and Economic Development Dr. Calvin Jamison. “So anything that’s exciting and new, this is the place to try it.”
The robots were developed by a company called Starship, and UT Dallas is only the seventh college campus in America to utilize them.
