Include Walk-In Traffic in the Dining Hall Capacity Management
Ensure that your dining hall capacity management solution also counts the walk-in traffic for those faculty and staff that may not reserve their spot ahead of time.

Students can view the current capacity live in the mobile app, so they can make appropriate social distancing decisions.
