Abstract

The purpose of this study was to assess similarities and differences in food safety policies and procedures related to student-led food events at colleges and universities (CUs) in the U.S. The data were collected from public or land-grant CUs through a web-based questionnaire. Of the 231 CU personnel who were responsible for overseeing student-led food eventsreceiving the questionnaire, 75 personnel provided information about current food safety policies and procedures at their institutions. The findings of this study could influence the development of a guidance document about food safety policies and procedures for student-led food events.
