At Carlow University on Thursday afternoon, members of the Pittsburgh Promise, with community and higher education groups and representatives from the local, state, and federal governments, came together to address the issue of food insecurity on college campuses.
According to research presented at the event, some 90,000 college students in Pennsylvania are battling food insecurity.
Some students said the issue is hunger when the cafeteria or dining hall is closed and how most students struggling won’t speak up about being hungry largely because of shame.
