You are welcome to make your comment directly to any member of the Dining Services team.
• Food Committee: The Bennington College food committee encourages student involvement in the menu selection process, and allows Dining Services to communicate directly with students. If you wish to participate, contact the Dining Services office for a schedule.
• Special Diets: If you have a special diet or diet restrictions, call the Director of Dining Services at x4436 for an appointment to discuss available options.
• Box Lunches: Don't miss a meal because of a scheduling conflict! Sign up for a box lunch instead. Information is available in the Dining Services office or on the Intranet.
• Special Events: Periodically we offer special events in the dining hall, such as Midnight Breakfast, Thanksgiving Dinner, Everybody's Birthday Party, and Cinco de Mayo. If you have any suggestions for future events, please let us know.
• Recipes from Home: If you have a favorite meal or dessert from home and would like to see it served in the dining hall, just send the recipe to us and if feasible we will feature it on the menu.
• Employment Opportunities: We hire students to work in various positions during meal times. Our jobs provide flexible hours and work around your class schedule. If you are interested in working for Dining Services, contact us at x4436.
