Tiger's Den Food Pantry
Food insecurity is when a person lacks access to nutritious, affordable food. As report by researchers in higher education about one-third of college students experience food insecurity.
In response to those findings university officials, including Ms. Tameka Harper, MPA, Dean of Students, Department of Social Work and Ms. Kiyana Porter, Junior Political Science student began the establishment of the Tiger鈥檚 Den听the food pantry. Ms. Porter was one of the main students advocating for the food pantry鈥檚 creation. After advocating for the pantry for more than a year and a half, Porter is now the student manager of the pantry, who is responsible for training volunteers and assisting with the daily operations. She will remain on a subcommittee, along with three university faculty members and administrators to maintain the pantry.
Students can visit the pantry once per week by showing their 快活视频 student ID cards.听
Students will not be questioned about their food security when they enter the food pantry.
The pantry will start by giving out canned and non-perishable food items like cereal, juice, pasta and canned fruits and vegetables. The pantry will also provide allergen-friendly items, like dried fruit and gluten-free pasta.
You can help support the 快活视频 Tiger鈥檚 Den Food Pantry by donating nonperishable food items, toiletries and feminine products directly to the Pantry! All donations will be used to stock the Food Pantry and support members of the 快活视频 student campus community.

At the Office of the Dean of Students and Student Conduct, our commitment lies in serving students with utmost dedication. We take pride in offering assistance and exercising professional judgment during times when students encounter unforeseen and difficult circumstances. As part of our commitment, we may provide a classes missed memo as a considerate gesture to inform instructors about a student's absence.
Our primary goal is to support students through challenging situations by maintaining open lines of communication between the Office of the Dean of Students and Student Conduct, instructors, and students themselves. By preparing classes missed memos, we strive to ensure that instructors are aware of any absences and can work collaboratively with students to address missed coursework or assignments.
We understand that unexpected circumstances can arise, and our aim is to assist students in navigating these situations while fostering an environment of understanding and support.
WHAT IS A CLASSES MISSED MEMO?
Classes missed memos are provided to students under limited circumstances supported by appropriate documentation. These extenuating situations may include:
Please note that a classes missed memo does not serve as an institutional excuse. An institutional excuse is specifically reserved for situations where a student represents the university in academic, extracurricular, or athletic events or is engaged in military service.
Regarding absences that do not fall under institutional excuses, it is at the discretion of each instructor to address them. Various factors may be taken into consideration, including the attendance policy outlined in the course syllabus, the course structure, as well as the student's prior attendance and performance. Only an instructor has the authority to "excuse" an absence. We strongly advise students to maintain open communication with their instructors and collaborate on making arrangements to compensate for any missed work.
It is important for students to recognize that the resolution of missed classwork ultimately lies in coordination with their instructors. By actively engaging with their instructors, students can effectively navigate the process of making up for any missed coursework or assignments.
To request a memo for missed classes, students are required to complete an online form (). Please ensure that the form includes the following details: the reason for your absence, the specific dates of your absence, and the anticipated date of your return to class. It is important to note that students must be ready to upload appropriate documentation supporting the reason for their absence. Examples of acceptable documentation include a note from a healthcare provider (Return to School Certificate), hospital discharge paperwork, an obituary or funeral program, or any other relevant documentation that clearly indicates the nature and duration of the absence. It is crucial that all documentation is submitted before the notifications to professors are finalized and distributed.
