DYK?🍦🏛️ One of the the sweetest campus legends started with a rumor on Reddit! ⁣
⁣
In the early 2010s, students began claiming there was a hidden DQ in Altgeld’s basement. The story became such a campus phenomenon that in 2024, the illiniunionboard hosted a Dairy Queen pop-up there with more than 800 Dilly Bars. 🤯⁣
⁣
Now for the ultimate question: Will Altgeld’s renovation finally bring a permanent DQ to campus? 👀🧡💙⁣
