Vegetarian menu choices are available in each of our Dining Centers. The Nutri-Choice program is designed to encourage weight management.

Our Registered Dietitian is here to answer your questions about making healthy food choices, how to look and feel your best, managing personal health issues, or improving athletic performance. Students needing to follow a medically prescribed diet may schedule an appointment and must have documentation from your physician. Private consultations are free of charge to Ferris students and staff. She also takes referrals from Birkham Health Center, the Counseling Center, and athletic coaches. Contact Brenda Walton at (231) 591-3747 or    E-mail at waltonb@ferris.edu. She will work with the Dining staff to assist students with special diet needs.

Brenda is available to speak on nutrition topics in the residence halls or for other student groups. Ferris students living off-campus can get advice on shopping and cooking on a budget.
