reflecting on an incredible Year
As another school year comes to a close, I am inspired by all that our teams and partners have accomplished together. From new JoyFul events to renewed legacy events, your partnership is invaluable to our mission of creating moments of joy through food.
As we close out the year, we are humbled to hear that our partners honored several associates with awards. As we look forward to the new school year, we are closely following the latest food trends and looking for ways to expand our Teaching Kitchen series. In recognition of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, our culinarians are partnering with AAPI chefs to put a unique spin on Asian-inspired dishes.

I would also like to extend a very warm congratulations to all our graduating guests. Above all, I’m grateful to our partners for sharing our vision of a better campus dining experience and working with us to make that happen. Thank you for an incredible year.
