DS has been at school less than 2 weeks and found the offerings to be less than stellar.

Hezz, that is disappointing. 

DD had great experiences in the past as an undergrad. 

At DS2's school, this year they have revamped their allergy area and have included space and safe ingredients for students who want to prepare their own food. I haven't heard how that is going, they only recently went back.

It's not like allergies are new, schools have had time to plan and accommodate.
