(Each Monday during the academic year, I feature a "Campus Highlight": a unique, interesting, and noteworthy student organization, program, or initiative that demonstrates the amazing things college students do each and every day across the country.)
I'm excited about this week's Campus Highlight because it focuses on an exciting organization. The Colorado College Community Kitchen (Colorado Springs, CO) claims to be "the only soup kitchen in the United States that actually operates on a college campus." Each Sunday, the Kitchen provides hot meals to community members in need and was started "by a student interest in serving the poor and hungry of Colorado Springs."
Community service work? Awesome. Community service work originating from student initiative? Even better. A community kitchen that operates on and utilizes a college campus -- and has been doing so for 16 years? Fantastic! Keep up the good (and I mean good) work, Tigers!
