Food Allergies at College

We're still years away from dealing with food allergies at college. I have heard from friends, though, that many campuses have set up food allergy policies. This article, in the Miami Hurricane, student newspaper of the University of Miami, features food allergy issues.

FAAN (Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis Network) recently started a site where parents and students can find out how food allergy friendly campuses are. You enter the name of the university and search. The FAAN College Network seems to be fairly new with limited data at this time. But, check back as more campuses provide information. This could be a great tool for families. I love the concept.

Have any of you dealt with food allergies and colleges? What's it been like?
