Well-Being Commitments

A healthy environment, community, and café menu are vital to the well-being of our guests. Many of our guests have a high level of interest in health and nutrition. Emory Dining has several programs to support students and guests in making choices to improve their well-being. 

Emory Dining uses a unique tool, the Well-Being Indicator, to support students and guests in making healthier choices. Menu items featuring whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and lean proteins are rated highest and produce a fuller arrow. Items with more saturated fat, sodium, and added sugar are scored lower and show a less full arrow. Look for the Well-Being Indicator on menus throughout our cafés and online. Learn more about the Well-Being Indicator. 

For students and guests who need to take their food to go, Emory Dining offers full nutrition and ingredient information on all our house-made Grab and Go items. 

Learn about contemporary nutrition topics and gain a better understanding of the impact of food choices on personal health with the Food for Your Well-Being Program. Our nutrition team actively promotes healthy lifestyles through table displays, food tastings, and special menu options. Look for the team each month at Cox Hall, the Dobbs Common Table in the Emory Student Center, and Rollins Café.
