As COVID relief efforts continue to disproportionally impact college students –specifically adult dependents – more and more students are facing food and housing insecurity.
Roughly 39% of college students reported food insecurity this past year, according to an annual survey conducted across 227 collegiate schools by Hope Center for College, Community, and Justice at Temple University.
Vermont has implemented measures to address those facing food insecurity as a result of the pandemic and students are no exception.
“Everyone Eats” is a food-relief program that partners with local restaurants and farms to make individually packaged, cold, prepared dinners for anyone suffering adverse effects from the COVID pandemic.

Professor Laura Mongiovi recently returned from a Fall 2019 sabbatical, taught during a pandemic and completed an exhibition project in collaboration with the Flagler College Archives.
This is the third time for the Archives collaboration and grew out of Archivist Jolene DuBray’s desire to host student exhibition opportunities for student work on the first floor of Proctor Library. Each time the pair works together, they seek new formats for student engagement outside of the art department in addition to the actual showing of the student artwork. For the most recent exhibit, “The Book of Tea” they invited Assistant Professor Nicholas Miller to speak on tea history and Visiting Lecturer Lauren Tivey s students to contribute Haiku poems. The goal for the partnered shows is always to offer a broad history and interpretation of the subject matter selected for exhibition.
