As a parent, you naturally wonder if there are healthy eating options on a college campus. GCU provides healthy food options in in their campus eateries, as well as alternative options for students with food allergies and limitations. One such option is Simple Servings, a new dining option that provides safe food choices for students with food allergies, gluten intolerance and more. They offer a variety of foods that are made without ingredients responsible for food-allergy reactions, including milk, eggs, wheat, soy, shellfish, peanuts, tree nuts and gluten.
