In light of recent articles published by the Washington Square News and the New York Times (featuring an NYU student) examining food insecurity among college students, the Department of History staff has been brainstorming ways to meaningfully support NYU students who have limited or uncertain access to food. As an initial and immediate way to be supportive, the department has made food available to students in our faculty lounge. We are also planning to make a food pantry accessible to students.

We have created a brief survey to gather feedback on our food pantry and how we can best meet the needs of our students. Please note that this survey is anonymous. You can complete the survey at the following link: https://forms.gle/67jzqT3h1bQmnd5JA
