As we melt into the final night of Cheesy Nights, we’re feeling extra grate-ful.
Over four nights, University Libraries served more than 10,000 grilled cheese sandwiches, stacking up comfort, connection, and a much-needed study break during finals. With big smiles and laughs, students made the most of every melty moment with friends.
This tradition doesn’t happen without you. Thanks to your generosity, we’re able to keep the grills hot and the sandwiches flowing. Your support helps create a welcoming space where students can recharge, connect, and feel at home, even in the busiest weeks of the semester.
You helped make this year’s Cheesy Nights un-brie-lievable. We can’t wait to do it all over again during finals week in December.
Thank you for your support!
The third night of Cheesy Nights was amozzing!
Cheesy Nights was jumping!
Members of Virginia Tech's jump rope club showed off their skills while enjoying their stress-relieving snack.
We served more than 2,300 sandwiches to hungry Hokies on study breaks.
A good sandwich always helps students stay sharp! We will be back tomorrow night for the final Cheesy Night. Thank you for your support.
Second Night of Cheesy Nights: Feeling Grate-ful for You
The second night of Cheesy Nights was so gouda!
We served 2,900 sandwiches, along with gluten-free and dairy-free options for studying Hokies. Your support helped keep students fueled and focused during a critical stretch of the semester.
The HokieBird even stopped by to cheer students on! Between studying and snacking, the atmosphere was equal parts productive and brie-lliant.
Because of you, students had a welcoming place to pause, recharge, and keep pushing forward. That kind of support? It’s un-brie-lievably meaningful.
Thank you! We will see you Sunday for night 3. It's going to be a-mozz-ing.
First night of Cheesy Nights!
Cheesy Nights kicked off its four-night run with a celebration worthy of our May graduates — caps, gowns, and plenty of melted cheese.
Graduates marked one of their final campus traditions in style, showing up in regalia for a night that blended celebration with community. The grills stayed hot as we served nearly 2,300 grilled cheese sandwiches to a crowd of hungry Hokies that was clearly grate-ful.
Night one set the tone: high energy, strong turnout, and a whole lot of gouda vibes. From first-years to soon-to-be alumni, Hokies came together to celebrate the end of the semester — and for our graduates, the beginning of what’s next.
Three more nights to go! 
Thank you for helping to make the night such a melting success. See you tomorrow night!
