About this listen
In this special episode of GridgeFridge—and the last episode of season 5—we examine an issue and hot topic amongst students at UW-Madison—food insecurity.
As housing becomes more expensive, and tuition costs rise, food access has become a prevalent concern for students on campus. Reduced access to nutritious food has been shown to impact physical and mental health, student GPA, class attendance, and even graduation rates.
This narrative-style episode features voices across campus, including student voices, ASM student leaders, UW faculty and staff. Listeners will learn about the results of the Basic Needs Survey, the impact of food cost on campus, administrative support and more.
Addressing food insecurity requires collaboration—between students, administrators, and the wider campus community—and we’re going to unpack it all in this special episode of GridgeFridge.
