Reply to comment by WhyNotKenGaburo in Temple limits public access to food court following violent incidents by Sunset_Bleu

I'd probably been going to the Porter Exchange in Cambridge, MA for over a year before someone told me it was a Lesley University food court. This concept isn't unique or even particularly rare.

I'm sure it exists. I've just never seen something like it at an urban university. I was just in Cambridge for some professional activities at Harvard and MIT. Both seemed to be locked up pretty tight and I needed to register as a guest at both about a week in advance. Both sent me a pass for my phone so I could swipe into the buildings that I needed to be in. I wasn't looking for a food court though.
