The National Foundation for Celiac Awareness (NFCA) has a new digital publication for gluten-free college students called GREAT U. The terrific resource is a must read for gluten-free high school students applying to college. Those already in college will find the guide handy not only for themselves, but for helping roommates and friends understand the gluten-free diet. Parents will enjoy reading GREAT U, especially the tips on how to make the ultimate gluten-free package.
“GREAT U was created to build gluten-free students’ confidence and empower them to take action on their own behalf while on campus. All students deserve a GREAT college experience, and this publication helps them do just that.”
Here are my favorite articles in GREAT U:
- Gluten-Free No-Nos in the Dining Hall
- Gluten-Free One Liners
- Hurdling the Obstacles
- Dating Dos and Don’ts
- Great Stories from Our GREAT Schools (Emory University, University of Nebraska, Lincoln, and University of Colorado Boulder)
- How to Start Your Own Gluten-Free Advocacy Group on Campus
