The Elisabeth Haub School of Law has established a Food Pantry program on campus available to students and their families who need food assistance.

The innovative program expands access to vital legal education for healthcare professionals in a post-pandemic era.

The $499,354, five-year award will allow to continue expanding the BEDE (Biological and Environmental Data Education) Network, with the aim of establishing a diverse, wide-reaching community of college instructors “trained in integrating data science skills across introductory biology and environmental science curricula.”
