Passover
Passover Support at UCSC
During Passover, UC Santa Cruz Dining takes intentional steps to provide options that support students observing the holiday. Select dining halls and campus markets offer Passover-inspired dishes and Kosher-friendly items throughout the week of observance.
Dining Hall options
- UCSC Dining will offer a variety of Passover-style dishes at participating dining halls during dinner service.
- Matzo crackers and condiments will be available throughout the day, and matzo ball soup may be offered during meal times.
- Menu items will avoid ingredients restricted by Kosher dietary laws—such as pork and shellfish—and meat and dairy will not be served together in the same menu offering.
- While products used may be Kosher-certified at the time of purchase, food will not be prepared in a certified Kosher kitchen, and a mashgiach will not be present.
- For specific daily menus and participating dining halls, please check the UCSC Dining Menus.
Market options
Kosher-friendly snacks and packaged foods will be available for purchase at select campus markets throughout the week.
