SB - Sylvan Snack Bar

The Sylvan Snack Bar is a cooperative student-run food business located in McNamara Dorm in the Sylvan Residential Area. We provide evening and late night dining options to students including subs, calzones, and (awesome) quesadillas. Established in 1971, The Sylvan Snack Bar is the oldest student-run, non-profit, collective business at UMass. We are open during the fall and spring semesters, Sunday through Thursday 6:30 - 11:00 pm. All co-managers are involved in the business, meaning that everyone must be able to contribute ideas and share the work equally. The Sylvan Snack Bar is not just a food-service job (although we do make pretty good food). As a co-manager, you will learn facilitation skills, group dynamics, cooperative management skills, and have a sense of ownership in a successful business.
