The rotating, daily menus in our all-you-care-to-eat meal plan are built with top allergens and dietary preferences in mind.  Most dishes include gluten-free and vegan options, and menus are posted with allergen information available.  We also have a dedicated gluten-free section with a toaster for bread and bagels.

 

The food service staff receive food-safe handling training and know the importance of food safety and preventing cross-contamination.  If you have food allergies or serious dietary concerns, please self-identify with our residence team and our food service team so we can work with you to determine safe dining options.  

 

While we work hard to ensure students’ diets are accommodated, SJU does not have certified allergen-free facilities. We make every reasonable effort to take necessary precautions to minimize the risk of exposure but the potential for cross-contamination remains.  We encourage you to speak with a chef or manager about safe dining options and ingredients or if you require special preparation for a meal.  Please note that students with dietary restrictions may have fewer options available to them or may need to make a special request for an item during mealtimes.  

 

During the residence application process, students with food allergies and other dietary needs are encouraged to speak with the Residence team in advance of accepting a residence contract to ensure the format of the meal plan suits their needs.  We will work with you to find housing on campus that best accommodates dietary requirements.
