Get Well Meals
If you are ill, or injured, and unable to make it to one of the campus dining locations, you may be able to get food to go from the Pavilion Dining Room (SLP).
First, you will need to contact the USD Health Center at x4595. They will either recommend you see them for an office visit, or will contact Residential Life. A meal voucher will then be completed for you that can be turned in at the Pavilion Dining Room for a ‘get well’ to-go box of food. With the voucher, a roommate, friend, or Residential Life staff person, may pick up the food for you.
For more information, please contact:
