WHAT IS THE STUDENT SUPPLY CLOSET?
The student supply closet is a space designed to help any undergraduate and seminarian students access any items that they need and otherwise have limited access to.
WHERE IS IT LOCATED ON CAMPUS?
The Student Supply Closet is located in room CL008 in the Cleveland Annex, which can be accessed from the door to the basement of Carnegie Hall.
WHAT DOES THE STUDENT SUPPLY CLOSET PROVIDE?
- Nonperishable foods (mac n cheese bowls, ramen, cereal, oatmeal, granola bars etc.)
- Toiletries (toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant, shampoo, body wash)
- Laundry detergent
- Feminine hygiene products
- School supplies (notebooks, pens, pencils, etc.)
- Frozen meals packaged in the Community Action Committee's Kitchen-to-Table program using leftover food from McClurg Dining Hall
WHO CAN ACCESS THE STUDENT SUPPLY CLOSET?
Any currently enrolled undergraduate student of the College of Arts & Sciences and graduate students of the School of Theology at The University.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
A student in need can come into the closet anytime on any day between 7 a.m. and 11 p.m. (the hours of the building) by scanning their Student ID to open the door. Once inside, they are welcome to take whatever items they may need from the shelves, while being considerate of the others who use the closet.
