               At DSU we have Sodexo as our food services provider and we do the Swipe Out Hunger program with them to give students some additional swipes if they run out of their meal plan….up to 20 swipes for the semester.   We also have a campus pantry that students can make appointments to utilize for food, hygiene items, etc if they are in need.
