“Starship robots are an important part of daily campus life at Mason,” said Roshonda Alexander, retail general manager at Mason Dining. “We took a bit of a risk five years ago when we introduced the robots, but we haven’t looked back since. The technology was embraced by our students and faculty as well as our merchants. We’re all about making lives easier for our students. The robots have done that and provided a fun technology that just makes people happy.”

Starship’s robots are now serving more than 1.1 million people across 50 U.S. college campuses, as well as in local neighborhoods in several other countries.
