Feed Our Grads RPI

Our goal is for graduate students to get the food they need and to prevent food insecurity. Graduate students have worried where their next meal will come from or how to feed their families. We are asking RPI’s administration to provide students with resources that prioritize every graduate student’s health so that we can stop worrying about when to eat next and focus on our research.

1. 20 free swipes per graduate student per semester 2. Grocery reimbursement for $440 per semester ($100 per month) 3. Hire permanent staff for pantry duties 4. Expanding RPI’s emergency cap to renew for every grad student These actions would provide a steady food resource for students and alleviate the financial burden of groceries. There is no “choosing to eat,” but this is a choice many of us are making currently.
