We maintain physical copies of the most recent reports and post signage reflecting our latest inspection score on the first floor of Mary Graydon Center and the entrance to TDR.

For all reports that contain findings or improvement recommendations, we post a management summary that provides more detailed information about the findings and our corrective actions.

We serve more than 45,000 meals per week in our dining venues. Mistakes can and do happen. We are most successful in resolving mistakes and ensuring our community enjoys their experience dining with us when we work together to address matters right away.

We encourage everyone to send feedback to us in several ways: 1) Ask for a manager in any of our venues so that we can address matters on the spot, 2) send us an email at聽mealplans@american.edu聽or 3) use our text2chat feature by texting the number on display in the dining hall. 聽

We look forward to hosting you in one of eateries on campus soon!

Onward we go, together!
