In this month’s recap of the Top 5 most popular C&U Food Management articles, Aramark’s plan for reinvigorating the college campus ranked as the week’s top story. While the COVID pandemic has disrupted the basics of campus life, the student desire for the college experience has never been higher. Here are some ways to manage the campus hospitality ecosystem to build demand for the on-campus experience and make it attractive to students and prospective students according to Jack Donovan, president and CEO of Aramark Higher Education, and Gary A. Williams, founder and CEO of wRatings.

 Among other stories in this week’s gallery:

  • Sodexo partners with HelloFresh on meal kits to college students; and

  • UConn’s food truck gets new spin as kitchen-to-outdoor serving station hybrid.

In other news, we offered a look inside Vanderbilt’s new and improved COVID-friendly dining services. After a bad student satisfaction survey, dining services redesigned the program for the spring semester. The first areas to improve? Menu diversity, communication and COVID-friendliness.
