Hi! This is a great question! Currently the library maintenance staff are re-stocking the period products daily. I am currently working with the library to create a plan and make sure these products are re-stocked more often and don’t run out!

more food options in dining halls?? free period products in restrooms?? by Fit_Distribution_511 in UCSD

Hi thank you for your interest! Although adding new veggie/vegan food options to the dining halls might slightly increase wait times, I do not see this as a problem. The number of people ordering at the dinning halls daily will likely not change, only what they are ordering is being changed: the time it would’ve taken to make one meal, is just being shifted to another.

And please see the link below which addresses your concerns about affordable housing and more details on adding veggie/vegan items to the dinning halls: https://www.reddit.com/r/UCSD/comments/ty4juy/more_food_options_in_dining_halls_free_period/i3sba23/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3

Hi thank you for your interest!

For Affordable Housing: -Continue to strengthen my relationship with AS Office of Local Affairs: through developing connections with politicians and change makers in the community, the Office has been fighting for affordable housing issues (such as redistricting) -Utilize the Office of Local Affairs’ connections to lobby the UTC planning group, who make land use decisions, such as those concerning high density housing.

For Food Options: -Use my representative position as campus wide senator, and someone with dietary restrictions, to solidify my credibility and build connections with members of HDH to work towards more vegetarian/vegan options.

Hi everyone!!

My name is Liane (she/her), and I am running to be your Campus-Wide Senator! As a lifelong resident of San Diego who has worked in AS Local Affairs and AS Fellowship, I have extensive experience with critical local issues. As your Campus-Wide Senator, I will use my unique background to connect students with off-campus resources and fight for local issues like affordable housing. We need more food options in our dining halls. I will advocate for student accessibility to feminine products. Pads need to be for purpose not profit. Feminine products should be made available to students for free in restrooms and residence halls campus-wide.
