Something for Everyone

These stations are certified by the Gluten Intolerance Group.  There are daily options at other stations including plain grilled chicken breasts and hamburgers; steamed vegetables, gluten-free deli meats, gluten-free cereal and bread; and gluten-free desserts. A dedicated toaster is available to toast the gluten-free bread. Throughout the dining commons there are many items that are made without gluten.  These items are identified with a special icon.
