Student Kitchen

kitchen area with stove, spices, bowls and baking essentials.

The Student Kitchen has a microwave, fridge/freezer, stove, two ovens, and a dishwasher. If you have questions about pots, pans, or other cooking utensils, please request a reservation, and once approved you will be given more information about what is available and how to obtain supplies. We cannot guarantee what cooking supplies are left in the kitchen by other students. To make a reservation, go to our Make a Reservation page and fill out the appropriate form. To see if your requested time is available, check the calendar below.  

Starting fall 2025, we will allow two reservations per day: one between 8am and 5pm, and a second at 6pm or later. If you have a last-minute request, please see the sign on the kitchen door for instructions. The Student Kitchen is available by key access. A lockbox is located adjacent to the main entrance. Silliman aide staff will send you a one-time-use code for opening the box once the reservation is finalized. Do not email the community listserv asking for the code!

Please note that we will have to shut the space down if we notice an ongoing problem with kitchen cleanliness. You may be charged a cleaning fee if you are identified as someone who leaves the space dirty. Do your part and keep the space clean! Please comply with the following rules:
