As fall term winds down and interim approaches, many students face an issue beyond finals and winter break plans: food insecurity. Despite efforts to address the issue, the lack of affordable dining options in the local a re a , e s p e c i a l l y d u r i n g breaks, often leaves a number of students scrambling for a l t e r n a t i v e s . H o w e v e r, Dartmouth Dining Services and Student Assembly are working to resolve at least part of this issue. In an attempt to increase food availability for students, the College will offer select dining services during the
upcoming interim for the first time. From Dec. 2 to Dec. 19, the Courtyard Cafe at the Hopkins Center for the Arts will offer certain menu items from 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. every day, and ’53 Commons will serve lunch from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. from Monday to Friday. DDS will also offer takeout services when the Courtyard Cafe and ’53 Commons are closed from Nov. 28 to Dec. 1 and Dec. 20 to Jan. 1. While students can pay with either cash or DASH, eligible students may also receive additional financial aid. “Right now, we’re looking at this pilot and seeing how successful it is,” said associate vice president of business and
hospitality David Newlove. “If it’s successful, we might carry it into other breaks and other time periods.” Newlove said that over 50 students have already signed up for the program, and students have until Nov. 19 to sign up.
