ASWSU Senator Nife Shola-Dare is creating a food insecurity fee to ensure WSU students will not be worried about where their next meal will come from.
Shola-Dare said she wanted to create a specific fee because food pantries on campus operate on donations and volunteer work alone.
“The food pantries here are all donation-based, so if we don’t get donations, basically the supplies will run low,” she said.
Her plan is still in the early stages of development, but Shola-Dare said she wants to eventually have each student pay $5 that would be paid through their WSU account to go toward the program.
