It’s been about a year since the University of Nebraska-Lincoln Dairy Store in Filley Hall within the Food Industry Complex, which includes the old Dairy Industry building, moved from its location on the south side of the building to the north side of the complex, facing East Campus Union.
This new space offers a renovated seating area and store operations, along with a view of Legacy Plaza and Dinsdale Family Learning Commons, formerly C.Y. Thompson Library.
The new location hosted a grand reopening on March 10, 2020, the day before COVID-19 temporarily closed campus. The Dairy Store first opened as Varsity Dairy in 1917 and served all-you-can-drink milk for a nickel to anyone who brought their own glass and provided dairy products for UNL dormitories.
With the continued impact of the coronavirus worldwide, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln has made a few changes to support in-person activities for the spring 2021 semester.
These changes, guided by the Spring Open Committee, mirror or follow protocols implemented before the fall 2020 semester in hopes UNL can continue to offer in-person experiences while prioritizing health and safety.Â
Face coverings and physical distancing are among the guidelines continuing in the spring, and the university will continue to offer isolation housing for any student who needs it. But, with changing health protocols, mandatory saliva-based testing and monitored building access are among the major updates facing UNL community members.

For many years, much of American innovation particularly tech innovation was concentrated on the coasts. Just five metropolitan areas (Boston, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle and San Jose) accounted for 90% of all U.S. high-tech job growth between 2005 to 2017.
Those days are coming to a close. The modern map of innovation and entrepreneurship is starting to shift as companies and innovators move inward toward the heartland. U.S. states primarily known for their agro business are becoming known for their hubs of innovation, with high rates of startup growth and growing networks of business owners and entrepreneurs.
