Description

This session features presentations on original research undertaken by senior sociology students in fulfillment of their capstone requirements. Over the course of the 2023-24 academic year, students in SOC 409 designed and implemented research projects that explored food access and food insecurity on the University of Dayton campus. The papers in this session include an investigation into how faculty and staff understand the problem of food insecurity on campus, an exploration of how peer networks impact students' access to food and understanding of food insecurity, and an analysis of how cultural norms, stigma, and context impact the acceptance of free food on campus. Collectively, these papers contribute an examination into how the social and cultural context of our campus shapes understandings of food access and insecurity.
