Charge of the University of Alabama Dining Service Development Committee
The purpose of the UA Dining Service Development Committee is to evaluate the quality of the food service across campus. This duty encompasses many facets of the food service department including all-you-care-to-eat facilities (board operations), retail dining (food court), convenience stores, coffee shops, grab-and-go carts, catering and restaurants. Our assignment is not only to bring our own opinions to the group, but to serve as an ambassador for those we represent. There are many different groups of people at UA, each with certain likes, dislikes, and preferences. It is the objective of the University Dining Service Development Committee to bring all of these ideas together and shape the campus food service operations on campus to best serve the needs of university community. Our positions require that we experience and evaluate a variety of food services. We should see ourselves as having a large responsibility, not only to our own group which we represent, but also to the committee itself. It is our highest goal to ensure the university total quality food service at the University of Alabama.

If you are unable to attend a meeting, please contact the committee convener or Daphne Wright at 205-348-5798 and send a substitute from your constituent group to the meeting. However, all material covered during the meeting is ultimately the committee members’ responsibility. It does not count as an absence if a member sends a substitute to the meeting. All member terminations and decision appeals should be directed to the convener.
