Food Inclusivity Program:
"There's Food For You Too!"
At Campus Dining, we believe that dining on campus should be an inclusive experience where everyone, regardless of dietary preferences or restrictions, can find delicious options to enjoy. Our Food Inclusivity program is designed to ensure that no one feels left out. We empower our guests to self-identify their allergens and eating preferences, linking them to resources and chefs who can guide them to safe and satisfying dining choices. By introducing a variety of new food options, we also aim to expand our guests' palates. Each fall semester, we feature a three-week campaign that highlights our Food Inclusivity program, preparing guests for a successful year by familiarizing them with all the diverse and inclusive dining options available on campus.
