Food is provided in a number of venues across campus, including dining markets, coffee shops, and convenience stores. Our menus include made-to-order items, many recipes made from scratch, and healthy options, giving you flexibility to eat what you want, when you want it. Our Registered Dietitians and online tools can also help you with nutrition and dietary needs. In addition, University Housing operates a large catering service to serve campus customers and care packages service.
