This study examined a cross-campus collaboration to assess levels of student food insecurity, to identify factors contributing to increased risk for food insecurity, and to determine how to address food insecurity. A random sample of students at a public, mid-sized, regional university were asked to complete an electronic survey about food insecurity and related topics. A majority (65%) indicated being at least marginally food insecure. In terms of strategies to address food insecurity, students were not aware of or did not use food pantries. These findings encouraged the university to engage in a collaborative effort to create a food pantry in support of student wellbeing and positive academic outcomes.

合作评估和解决大学校园的粮食不安全问题：中型地区大学的案例研究

本研究考察了跨校园合作，以评估学生粮食不安全的程度，确定导致粮食不安全风险增加的因素，并确定如何解决粮食不安全问题。一所公立、中等规模的地区大学的随机学生样本被要求完成一项关于粮食不安全和相关主题的电子调查。大多数人 (65%) 表示至少处于轻微的粮食不安全状态。在解决粮食不安全问题的策略方面，学生不知道或没有使用食品储藏室。这些调查结果鼓励大学共同努力创建食品储藏室，以支持学生的福祉和积极的学术成果。
