10 Restaurants you can get a discount at around campus: GrizzCard is the name, cheaper food is the game
Okay, so let me let you in on a little secret I just discovered. After attending Oakland University for four years, I realized that our GrizzCard holds more power than I thought it did. I’ve only ever used it if I needed while taking an exam or at a wēpa printing station. Never did I associate it with many perks — until now.
