Dining Services

Carroll University Dining Services supports students who have a food allergy by providing them with the information and knowledge necessary to make informed food choices in our dining areas. We work together to provide reasonable arrangements so that students can participate in the campus dining experience safely. Please visit the Dining Services office on the main floor of the Campus Center for more information, or set up a confidential meeting with the Dining Services director to help us better understand your specific dietary concerns. 

Our G8 Station in the MDR is dedicated to providing daily offerings of lean proteins, whole grains, fresh fruit and vegetables, and health snack options. G8 menu options are always prepared without the eight most common allergens: peanuts, tree, nuts, fish, shellfish, eggs, milk, soy, wheat and gluten. In addition, staff are trained in food allergen awareness and use precautions in food preparation.

Dining Services has a long-standing commitment to protect the environment. Through a variety of innovative programs and policies, we work closely with the community to reduce the impact that our operations have on the world around us. Our focus on recycling, resource conservation and waste reduction not only helps us operate more efficiently, but it also lets us ensure that the resources we use today will be available for future generations.

Every day we strive to make a difference in the lives of our guests by offering healthy food options. Just as we are dedicated to our guests, we're also dedicated to social responsibility and sustainability: 

• Eco-Friendly Catering—We choose bamboo – naturally eco-friendly and biodegradable – for catering events to reduce our carbon footprint and live a greener lifestyle. 
• Local Partners—We support many local farms within 150 miles of campus. 
• Skip the Straw Campaign—We've joined the straw-less movement to reduce the usage of plastic straws on campus. Paper straws are available upon request. 
• Pioneers Reuse To-Go Containers—The Reusable To-go Container Program has recently been expanded, and includes to-go containers for the MDR, as well as cups that can be used in the MDR, Stone Creek Coffee, Einstein Bros. Bagels and Crave at Carroll.
