A brief description of the vegan dining program, including availability, sample menus, signage and any promotional activities (e.g. “Meatless Mondays”):
A focus group of "secret shoppers" works with Dining Services staff, including dietitians, to address service, quality, and experience issues within dining units. These students report on the availability of vegetarian and vegan options, among other things. Also, students with specific dietary needs regularly meet with Dining staff to ensure that their specific needs can be addressed and appropriate foods are available at our dining units.
We also have Net Nutrition, an online tool containing menus, allergens, ingredient lists, nutrition labels and preferences like vegetarian and vegan, available to all students, faculty & staff.
Students may request other vegan food items through the dietitian.
