That's a wrap!

May 06, 2024

What a night! The last night of Cheesy Nights was amozzing! We moved the line inside due to rain, but that didn't slow us down one bit. 


During the four nights of Cheesy Nights, we served close to 6,000 sandwiches to excited and hungry Hokies. 

Because of you and other generous friends like you, we are able to keep the cheesy tradition alive. Thank you for your support!

We will do it again in December! Have a great summer!


You make this possible!

The third night of Cheesy Nights was sizzlin'!

The line started forming around 6:30 p.m. as the volunteers warmed up the grills. The comforting smells of grilling bread, butter, and cheese wafted throughout the library plaza.

Students were all smiles when they grabbed some study snacks from encouraging volunteers. 

Your generosity makes this brain-break possible for hard-working Hokies. Thank you for all your support. You put the cheese in Cheesy Nights!

The CHEESE is BACK!

May 03, 2024

The second night of Cheesy Nights was looking sharp! We were so grilled to see the line wrap around Newman Library and toward Squires Student Center. Students were ready to enjoy some encouraging comfort food.

University Libraries Dean Tyler Walters and wife Therese greeted students as they received their sandwiches, fruit, and salty and sweet snacks.

Students were able to take it cheesy on the plaza while socializing with their friends during a study break.

Thank you so much for supporting Cheesy Nights. Your generosity makes all of this possible. We will be back on Sunday for another unbrielievable Cheesy Nights! Thank you!



The first night of Cheesy Nights was cheddar than ever!

May 02, 2024

We served more than 1,800 grilled cheese sandwiches to hungry Hokies tonight! Students were glad they didn't swiss out on meeting and getting a sandwich from Women's Basketball Head Coach Megan Duffy. Members of the football coaching staff Mike Moyseenko and Brian Crist also came out to give students encouragement and a study snack.

New this semester ... THE BIG CHEESE! Cheesy Nights founder Therese Walters made students smile in her grilled cheese sandwich. Students loved taking selfies with Therese and her costume.


And the HokieBird joined the frivolity and fun.

We do it again tomorrow! Thank you so much for supporting this student outreach initiative!
