The University is also exploring the impact and availability of sustainable (including antibiotic-free) pork and beef.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, all of the dining center and food court salad bars and grill stations on River Campus and at Eastman serve antibiotic-free chicken. Additionally, the dining services at the Medical Center\u2014Caf\u00e9 601, the new Metro Deli Caf\u00e9, patient dining, and catering departments\u2014have plans to switch to all antibiotic-free chicken before the end of 2016.<\/p>\n<p>For full information on the University\u2019s commitment to sustainable dining, visit <a
