Conference Policies and Procedures

The University is proud to offer a Conference Plan to Conferences and Camps utilizing Dining Services. Contact the Director of University Dining Services for questions and arrangements.

All Dining Service arrangements must be arranged through the Director of University Dining Services.

All conference programs utilizing University residence facilities are required to participate fully in the meal service program provided by the contracted food service provider for the duration of their stay. Nonresidential programs are also welcome to use University Dining Services.

Meal service is generally provided at Riverside Commons, but may be moved to other venues based upon attendance at a particular meal.

The menu will be the same as that served to all patrons of the summer meal plan. In addition to the regular entrees, lunch and dinner will include a full salad bar, vegetable bar and dessert bar. All meals include vegetarian options.

Riverside Commons is designed as a one price, all-you-care-to-eat dining facility. Guests are asked to take only what they can comfortably eat and are asked to be mindful of food waste. Food, beverages, or dishes are not permitted to be carried out of the dining room. Guests are asked to leave tables and chairs in place (please do not move tables together). Guests are asked to remove all trays and dishes to the dish return line upon completion of their meal. Guests are asked not to return to Riverside Commons once they enter the tray return line.

Dining Services can provide a wide variety of catering services to meet your specific programmatic needs.

Alcohol, as with all food and beverage needs, must be arranged through the Director of University Dining Services. Alcohol service is subject to the approval of the appropriate University officials. Minimum sales guarantees are required to cover set up costs.
