Meal Menus
The University Children's Learning Center (UCLC) menu is created by a UND Registered Dietitian and approved through the ND Department of Public Instruction, Child and Adult Care Food Program. All food is prepared at Wilkerson Dining Services and brought to the Learning Center. At times substitutions are made, for instance if the bananas are not ripe Dining Services will hold onto our bananas and send us a fruit substitute.
If you would like to join your child for a meal, please see the Assistant Director about making a reservation.
