First of all, our Dining Chairs have been hard at work this IAP, meeting regularly with MIT Campus Dining in regard to food insecurity concerns. In addition to working to make long-term IAP dining policy changes, we’ve also provided Baker, New Vassar, McCormick,
and East Campus seed funding to start or enhance food pantries in their dorm. Be on the lookout from your dorm president for more information if you live there!</div>
