Dining with the Dean
A team of students from UATV and the Arkansas Traveler will compete for $3,000 in a fun and surprising competition on the reality show "Dining with the Dean."
The University of Arkansas episode of "Dining with the Dean" will be premiering at 8:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 17, on BYUtv. BYUtv is available on channel 9403 for all Dish Network programming packages, and on channel 374 for all DIRECTV programming packages.

On Oct. 21, a production team from the show came to campus to shoot the program. The surprise twist was announced to the student teams that morning. Each team was given $30 and three hours to complete a challenge: The challenge, to cook a three-course dinner for Dean of University Libraries Carolyn Henderson Allen. Watch this special behind-the-scenes coverage produced by university relations.
