Welcome to the latest edition of your Partnership Report Card. I am pleased to share updates on the many ways we are connecting with students and your entire campus community. Sodexo works to improve campus environments through our food service, facilities management, master planning and a full range of offers that support student recruiting, retention and success for your campus.

Did you know that Sodexo also serves college stadiums with concessions, suite catering and more? During the fall season, we serve as many as 1 million college football fans on an average Saturday afternoon. At all size campuses, Sodexo provides innovative game day experiences that keep the fans coming back for more. We are #1 in the college stadium market because our teams work to Perform, Deliver and Win for our campus partners. Be sure to watch for our new ad campaign in many of the college trade publications.

Throughout the pages of this report, you will see similar examples of the many ways we are driving exceptional experiences for the students on your campus. From our fulfilling our sustainability commitments to creating delicious and healthy meals, we are proud to be your partner.

Sincerely, Lynn Tucker General Manager

A Shift in Values: Changing the Path to Adulthood

The Millennial Generation is reshaping the “American Dream” as we witness a shift away from traditional paths to adult life. This generation tends to spend time focusing on what is important to them, and they realize there is no set path to follow in order to be successful. They know that life after college will be very different from their parents’ experiences. Research shows they don’t feel the need to be married or start making mortgage payments right away. Finding a job in their field of study may be difficult, with only 54% of graduates actually finding something related to their degree.

More of a priority is being placed on personal responsibility and self-reliance, especially around financial security. We see that millennial credit card debt is down 47% from three years ago. Student loan debt is down 17% from 18 months ago. In fact, so much priority is placed on paying these debts down, that long-time financial goals are on hold. In the case of home ownership, only 42% say they plan on owning a home by time they are 30, a 6% drop from last year.

This is a more adaptive generation that realizes they need to be ready for changes and challenges that come their way. This might, in fact, show us that the newest generation of college graduates will be some of the most responsible consumers yet.

51% of Millennials say success

means making a lot of money,

down 15% versus three years ago.

Student Insights On Our Campus

Student engagement provides us with several opportunities to learn what our customers want. Through our various channels of communication with students, we were able to launch new programs, make changes to dining locations, and enhance all dining experiences. The Food Advisory Committee of Oxford at Emory (FACE) continues to bring forth valuable suggestions and offer constructive critiques of the dining service. Changes for fall semester 2012 include: -new recipes using local ingredients at Vegan Station -breakfast for dinner twice a month -more pasta options -seasonal coffee -freshly brewed tea -meals to-go can be delivered to Pierce Hall -music via Pandora during dining hours of service -decided to extend lunch hours from 11:15 to 2:45 beginning in the spring semester

Health and wellness is top of mind for students today. They still occasionally want comfort foods, but they continue to be interested in making decisions that support a healthy lifestyle. With a focus on menu innovation, convenient access to information and balanced choices, we are leading the way in supporting students’ healthy lifestyles. Our dedication to the overall wellness of your students, and to advancing the health and wellness of your entire campus community, is core to our partnership.

Responsible Sourcing for Fresh and Sustainable Food

Sodexo’s Commitments Praised by the Humane Society

Sodexo has made two significant commitments to change product sourcing. We will source only cage-free shelled eggs by July 2014 and eliminate the use of gestation stalls in our supply chain by 2022.

These commitments are being praised by the Humane Society of the United States. “The impact of Sodexo’s announcement significantly advances the industry’s progress toward a more humane and sustainable food system” said Wayne Pacelle, president and CEO of the Humane Society.

Sodexo views its commitment to the humane treatment of animals as highly important, just as it is for the people and the communities that it serves. This step is an important part of the progress the company is making toward sustainability in a range of areas, from the food it sources to the energy and facilities management services it provides.

The commitment to animal welfare is just one part of Sodexo’s overall approach to sustainability and corporate social responsibility. Last year, we launched a Sustainable Seafood Initiative, which includes a commitment to having 100% of our fresh and frozen contracted seafood be Marine Stewardship Council or the Best Aquaculture Practices certified sustainable by 2015.

Farmers Markets

Sodexo supports local farmers by showcasing their products at on-campus farmers markets. The partnership supports local growers and provides even more fresh and local offerings for students.

Health and Wellness On Our Campus

Cristina Caro, Registered Dietitian, joined the Dining team this fall. Cristina brought a fresh new perspective to health and wellness on campus. Services offered included consultations, personal advice, nutritional plans, and monthly columns in the Dining Newsletter. Health and wellness is a top priority for dining. We help guests select delicious, nutritious and satisfying meals, snacks, and desserts by highlighting well-balanced menu choices and providing nutritional information and tips to help guests make choices that fit their needs.

Our commitment to a better tomorrow is making a difference. We know that our work in sustainability connects with students and improves many aspects of a campus. From zero waste days at college stadiums to fair trade coffee to energy management, many of our environmental initiatives directly involve students. We don’t just talk about our commitment. We measure it. We are pleased to continually report out on the progress we are making on our sustainability commitments.

Bio-Based Cleaning – Powered by Nature

Bio-based cleaners are made from things that grow, like corn, soybeans and even coconuts.

Across the nation, bio-based products ranging from cleaning supplies to carpet backing to energy- efficient roofing materials are made with ingredients grown right here on American farms. Each year, U.S. soybean growers plant about 75 million acres of soybeans offering an abundant and rapidly renewable source of ingredients that are helping to revitalize U.S. manufacturing.

Bio-based cleaners are a new way to deliver effective cleaning performance with cleaning solutions made from things that grow, like corn, soybeans and even coconuts. Products made with renewable resources help curb our dependence on fossil fuels, as well as reduce greenhouse gas emissions. They can also offer environmental and health benefits, such as lower VOCs and less exposure to toxic chemicals as well as irritation from odors and more.

In 2011, the U.S. Department of Agriculture introduced its “BioPreferred” seal – the organic label for things you can’t eat. Products are designed with sustainability and safety in mind, solutions are made from plant derived natural resources, reducing environmental impact and eliminating the need to wear personal protective equipment during its use. Sodexo is working with our partner, Ecolab, at our facilities management partnerships to begin using hard surface cleaners that are renewable and both USDA Bio Based and Green Seal certified.

Sodexo Recognized for Grounds Management Excellence

Five Sodexo campuses are among the winners of the national awards from the Professional Grounds Management Society. The annual awards recognize private, public commercial and industrial landscapes that are maintained with a high degree of excellence. We are proud to provide beautifully designed and well-maintained grounds for our campus partners.

Environmental Focus On Our Campus

Sustainability continues to be a priority for Emory Dining-Sodexo. As we work together to reach Emory’s ambitious goal of 75 percent locally or sustainably grown food in the hospitals and cafeterias by 2015, we continue to encourage, promote, and practice sustainable efforts through various channels.

These channels include the 100 Mile Meal to help promote Food Day, Heritage Harvest Feast, trayless dining, and the Fall Pumpkin Contest.

We are in the people business. To be the best at delivering customer service and create exceptional experiences for everyone, our commitment to our people is vital. One of the most important commitments we can make is to provide our people the training, develop-ment and opportunities to be excellent in their current and future jobs. Internal programs such as The Sodexo Experience and our Virtual Training help us maintain a consistent focus on outstanding service and support growing our people.

Sodexo Recognized by LATINA Style Magazine as One of the Best Companies in the U.S. Supporting our team members with a diverse and inclusive workplace is an important element in developing our excellent customer service.

♦ Online payment for purchases from gifts to voluntary meal plans and

more. ♦ Content management from multiple levels that include national,

regional and local sources. ♦ Mobile web apps that feature daily menu options, special

promotions, hours of operation and more. Customers can access the information anytime, anywhere.

The added convenience, security and communication combine to enhance everyone’s experience.

Innovation On Our Campus

The Oxford Dining Traditions continue to help break the monotony and make lasting memories for the students. This year’s fall dining traditions included the Welcome Carnival, Homecoming BBQ, Halloween Party, Heritage Harvest Feast, and the ever popular, Pancake Breakfast. Our goal is to provide students with exceptional dining experiences. These traditions are just some of the ways we strive to go above and beyond customer expectations. Each tradition was paired with a culinary menu to match the spirit of the event.
