Daphne Budin had never eaten non-kosher meat before coming to Syracuse University.
But because of the limited options in SU’s dining halls, Budin, a sophomore human development and family science major, has since started eating meat that isn’t kosher. Most dining halls don’t serve kosher foods, and Budin’s allergies can make finding suitable options even harder.
“When I would go into the dining hall, there were just not so many options,” Budin said. “It kind of just became a routine that I started to eat ‘unkosher’ meat.”

International Women’s Day was honored for the first time in 2011 in Denmark, Germany, Austria and Switzerland. A century later, March 8 is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating gender parity.
At Eagle County Paramedic Services, we see the gender difference in our field daily. According to the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians, 34% of EMTs are female and only 21% of paramedics are female. In other first responder careers, approximately 12% of the national police force is female and only 4% of paid firefighters are women.
