Students at UD love their late night food on Friday and Saturday nights. We can walk down to Brown Street to grab a sandwich at Jimmy John's or even a few chili dogs from the newly opened Skyline. Then of course there is everyone's favorite post party snack: pizza. Everyone has their favorite whether it is a Big Ten from Cousin Vinny's or a few larges from Domino's. It is tough to travel far on a Friday or Saturday night after 1 a.m. without seeing delivery cars throughout the streets of the student neighborhood.

There is another option that has been created by our very own peers though. At the top of Stonemill, at the spot that Rudy's Flyby used to call home sits an old bus that just happens to have a kitchen inside. The Monchon has been in business since November 2007, serving our late night craving with their chicken and steak sandwiches. For some reason though, many students on campus still are not aware of its existence. This is a sad thought, but not because they are missing out on some great sandwiches (well, for that too), but because The Monchon should be a source of inspiration for us all.

Eduardo Arroyo and Adrian Perez work every Friday and Saturday night from about 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. to help out the UD community. Both of them are UD students. That's right, a couple of UD students who started their own business right here on our campus. Were they looking to make a profit and benefit themselves? It's a business, of course they were (and who can blame them). But what they have done for everyone else is why The Monchon is so special. By opening up this business they have opened up jobs for students and created a rewarding, late-night gathering place, showing that with some hard work and dedication to an idea, anything is possible.

Arroyo and Perez have shown what students at UD are capable of and their sandwich shop embodies our ideas of community on campus. Let their business venture be a model of what hard work can do and how it can benefit a community on the whole - while having some of the best sandwiches around.
