A Q&A with Parkhurst GM Jeff Smock

As Parkhurst's general manager, Jeff Smock oversees dining service operations on campus.

Throughout his career, Jeff Smock has done just about everything there is to do in the food service industry -- except colleges and universities. He now can add that to his resumé. As of June 1, Jeff became the general manager for Parkhurst Dining. Throughout the summer, he's overseen the transition process and has been closely involved in renovations to Hoernemann Refectory and those soon to take place at Fireside Café Pub and Rock Creek Express. In this Q&A with Jeff, find out what's in store for food service as Heidelberg and Parkhurst launch their long-time partnership.
