health & wellbeing

this is our philosophy

It’s simple. We believe that good food is essential to a healthy life. So our commitment is to help you power your life on campus with good food and a dining program that makes it easy for you to eat right.

It’s why we have healthy and wholesome choices available every day and it’s why we have nutrition and wellness programs that help take some of the mystery out of healthy living.

Registered Dietitian

Our Registered Dietitian is available to provide guidance and nutrition counseling for those with additional nutritional needs to help foster a healthy lifestyle here on campus. We can aid guests with dietary allergies or preferences as well, and provide individual and group nutrition tours to familiarize the campus community with the dining opportunities. We also offer specialized presentations and tabling events throughout the year to promote awareness between nutrition and healthy living.
