Franklin Dining Commons is located at the base of the Central residential area. Franklin is open to all students but its location makes it ideal for students living in Central and Orchard Hill. It is also close to Morrill and Mahar Auditorium. Franklin has two "wings", or entrances, and students should be warned that one may be closed during certain hours while the other is open.

According to the Official Dining Services Webpage, the current hours of operation at Franklin are:

* Monday to Friday 7:00 am to 8:00 pm
* Saturday & Sunday 8:00 am to 8:00 pm

The U-Card Office and Dining Services are also located on the ground floor of the Franklin Dining Commons, as is a convenience store. There is an outdoor ATM machine on the "dorm side" of Franklin as well. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
