Barnard College Student Coalition for Financially Insecure Students (For Students, By Students)United States
Nov 16, 2015
Our petition to provide safe, subsidized winter housing for housing-insecure Barnard students has gained 1,500 signatures in two days. Please know that we couldn't have done this without you. Thank you. Whether you’re an alumna, parent, student, friend, or concerned community member, NOW is the time to make your voice heard to the Administration. Barnard has not, in light of our petition, released any new information or responded in any way. Barnard must be reminded by its valued community members that they have a moral obligation to support the low-income students they’ve welcomed onto campus. You can e-mail Dean of the College Avis Hinkson (ahinkson@barnard.edu) and President of the College Debora Spar (presidentsoffice@barnard.edu) to demand they formally acknowledge the presence of “homeless” and “housing insecure” students on campus, and that they provide stable, subsidized winter housing for all students who request it. Feel free to use the letter template found at the link below, or write your own. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you for your continued support.
