Do you want to “Eat Mor Chikin”? Well, there is no need to go searching because a new Chick-fil-a has opened in the heart of downtown Charleston. It is located on the corner of Calhoun and St. Philip Street, which makes is convenient for many students and individuals to grab a bite to eat.
Chick-fil-a offers a full menu of breakfast, lunch and dinner. It is open from 7:30 a.m-10 p.m. This gives many students a chance to get some chicken sandwiches before and after class.
After being asked about the serious issue of gay rights, the CEO of Chick-fil-a expressed that he is against gay rights. This caused a major uproar for many people around the world, even our city of Charleston. Many students have been surprised that another Chick-fil-a was going to be established on campus because the Stern Center already has a Chick-Fil-A.
After the huge controversy, people who are against gay rights were rallying many Chick-fil-a establishments. Because of this homosexuals would plan “kiss-ins” which is the action of walking in to a Chick-fil-a and kissing. Regardless of this controversy, the new Chick-fil-a still has customers ordering their breakfast chicken minis and delicious milkshakes.

What do some students at College of Charleston have to say about the new Chick-fil-a?
"I don't eat there! They support organizations that support anti-gay rights. Not only are they anti-gay, they also support harmful methods that try to find a cure for homosexuality when homosexuality is not a disease, it's just the way people are. It seems like discrimination to me even if it is not as visible as color or religion."
-David Finlen, 21, International Studies major
"The service was good. I think it was mishandled considering the CEO said that the company did not believe in gay marriage. He should have not spoken for the whole company because he does not know everyone's views on marriage and even though he made that flaw in her announcement he has the right to believe what he wants."
-Ashley Butts, 20, Business major
"No, I haven't eaten there. I actually worked for Chick-fil-a for four years but actually resigned the week this controversy happened considering my busy schedule and this controversy."
-Chris Piedmont, 20, Communication major
