Dining Services

All resident students participate in one of the meal plan options offered by Dining Services. All meal plans operate on a declining balance, which allow the student maximum flexibility and convenience.

Things to consider when thinking about the three meal plans:

• Meal Plan #1 is for all first-year resident freshman and those residents who spend most of their time on campus, including breaks.
• Meal Plan #2 is for residents sophomore and above who spend the majority of their time on campus and have healthier appetites. Freshmen have the option of changing to this plan after one semester living on campus.
• Meal Plan #3 is for residents sophomore and above who frequently go home on weekends and have off-campus employment and/or internships.
• Clare Only Meal Plan is for residents of Clare Hall.  Clare Hall allows for a more independent living experiences and this meal plan provides some additional flexibility for students
• Graduate Student Meal Plan is for graduate students living on campus.  This is the smallest meal plan to allow for the different schedules and needs of our graduate student population.

Dining Services provides meal options to meet the needs of today’s college students while giving careful attention to nutrition, preparation and dining environment. A vegetarian option and an additional vegan entrée are provided at each meal. Students are encouraged to bring favorite recipes from home to share with Dining Services. 

The La Verna Commons dining area and the Inferno Cafe are located in Founders Hall, just a short walk from the residence halls.
