Food Security

Food insecurity is defined as a condition where persons, in this case students, do not have adequate resources to feed themselves, either nutritiously or not at all (USDA, 2013). According to a recent national study (Hunger on Campus, 2016), food insecurity is common at colleges and universities across the country, potentially undermining the educational success of untold thousands of students. If food insecurity is an issue you, or someone you know, help is readily available. Contact the WKU Office of Sustainability at (270) 745-2508 or email sustainability@wku.edu.
