As some students navigate between classes at Temple University in Philadelphia, they have the option to stop at a food truck for a quick meal, while others have to pause and ask themselves if they can afford to eat today. The answer to that question for someone like Temple sophomore Agnes Williams is no some days. However, at Temple, she can turn to the university’s food pantry. Food is donated there and students in need are allowed to stock up on a limited amount of food each week. This week, Williams was able to get three packages of ramen noodles, two individual-sized boxes of cereal, a can of soup, two tea packets, and feminine hygiene pads. The items are essentially enough to get her through the next two or three days.“There are times when I won’t eat, and time where I just don’t feel like I need to spend this much money to eat something,” said Williams.About 200 Temple University students come to the food pantry every week, because they are making the similar choice of whether to spend money on food or save it for bigger expenses like tuition, rent, or books.Even a student like Matthew Dougherty, who gets financial help from his parents and has a meal plan, says he still can only afford a plan with 10 meals a week. So, without the food pantry, he rations himself down to one to two meals a day.“A lot more universities should start reaching out and find a way to get something like this, because it’s a great resource, especially for kids who are not as fortunate and are just scraping the bottom of the barrel to even get to college,” Dougherty said.More than 600 colleges and universities across the country have opened food pantries for students. It is estimated that 50 percent of community college students and 33 percent of student who go to a four-year institution are struggling with food insecurity in America. Food insecurity, for college students or any American, is defined as being without reliable access to sufficient quantity of affordable, nutritious food.“Food pantries, you know, they are really nice people. It is a nice idea, but it does not end food insecurity; not even close,” said Sara Goldrick-Rab.Goldrick-Rab is the founding director of Temple University’s Hope Center, which is an action-research center that, in part, studies the long-term effects of food insecurity amongst colleges students.“It’s entirely possible that because a student was food insecure in college they developed health conditions that will make them not as healthy at work and unable to pay their bills,” said Goldrick-Rab. “I see tackling this issues as an educational issue, of course, as an economic issue, but also as a public health issue.”Legislators are trying to address this issue. Currently there are about a half-dozen bills sitting in congress, some with bi-partisan support, that range from making it easier for students to get snap benefits to expanding the national school lunch program to include higher education.“We have people who if we invest in them will be self-sufficient for the rest of their lives, especially if you’re not burdened with student loan debt,” Goldrick-Rab added, “or we can have people be impoverished during college, drop out because they didn’t get enough food and go on to lean on us taxpayers for the rest of their lives because their jobs don’t pay enough.” 3342

Axel Dennis and his family have faced challenging times in his short life after being diagnosed with a rare disease at 5 weeks old. Alex was diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy Type 1 which is a serious and deadly condition. According to U.S Department of Health and Human Services, symptoms include muscle weakness, lack of motor development and poor muscle tone. Children diagnosed with SMA1 generally are unable to sit up or stand. Left untreated, the disease is typically fatal by age 2. In the past, this diagnosis would have been considered terminal. But a recently developed treatment has made it possible for children to survive and live a normal life. The drug is called Spinraza and it was approved by the FDA in 2016. It allows children to reach and maintain age appropriate developmental milestones, including sitting, crawling, and walking. The drawback is it only slows the progression of the disease. It also has to be injected into the spine every fourth months under anesthesia. Health and Human Services also said that some babies do not respond to the treatment. A second drug was released this year called Zolgensma, which would give Axel likely the best chance of living a normal life. The drug uses gene therapy IV fusion that replaces a missing gene. But the revolutionary drug has a cost of .1 million.According to an article by 1370

California is giving childhood victims of sexual abuse more time to decide whether to file lawsuits, joining several states in expanding the statute of limitations for victims over warnings from school districts that the new rules could bankrupt them.The law signed Sunday by Gov. Gavin Newsom gives victims of childhood sexual abuse until age 40, or five years from discovery of the abuse, to file civil lawsuits. The previous limit had been 26, or within three years from discovery of the abuse.It also suspends the statute of limitations for three years — beginning Jan. 1 — giving victims of all ages time to bring lawsuits if they wish.“The idea that someone who is assaulted as a child can actually run out of time to report that abuse is outrageous,” said Democratic Assemblywoman Lorena Gonzalez, the author of the bill.California is at least the third state this year to take this step. Earlier this year, New York and New Jersey raised their statutes of limitations to age 55. New York also suspended its statute of limitations for one year, leading to hundreds of lawsuits against hospitals, schools, the Roman Catholic Church and the late financier Jeffrey Epstein.Similar lawsuits could follow in California. Seattle-based attorney Michael Pfau says his law firm represents about 100 childhood sexual abuse victims across the state who were waiting on the bill to become law so they can file lawsuits against the Boy Scouts, foster homes, schools and “almost every Catholic Diocese in the state.”“The breadth of it is staggering,” he said.The victims include Rich Clayton, who was sexually assaulted by an assistant scout master at his Boy Scout troop at Travis Air Force base in the early 1980s. Clayton, now 50 and living in Hawaii with his wife and five children, said in an interview he spent time in rehab for drug and alcohol abuse.A few years ago, Clayton learned his abuser had gotten out of prison, committed another crime, then was sent back to prison and released again. The news sent him in another spiral of drug and alcohol abuse until he tried to hang himself in his closet last year, only to be discovered by one of his children.“I’ve turned my life back in a positive direction, and I’m trying to work through that event,” he said.Clayton said he did not sue the Boy Scouts earlier because he “tried to bury that stuff so deep.” He said he did not fully understand the extent of the trauma he had been through until he went through counseling. Now, he wants to hold those responsible accountable.Without this law, Clayton said: “Those people that are stuck in some sort of past trauma that happened to them are going to still be stuck.”A statement from Boy Scouts of America said the organization cares “deeply about all victims of child abuse and (we) sincerely apologize to anyone who was harmed during their time in Scouting.” The statement noted the organization has put in safeguards like mandatory youth protection training and background checks while banning one-on-one interactions.Even before this year, the Boy Scouts’ finances were strained by sex abuse settlements, and the organization’s situation has worsened with the recent passage of victim-friendly laws in populous states. The organization says it is exploring “all available options” and has not ruled out filing for bankruptcy — an outcome considered virtually inevitable by some of the lawyers filing sex-abuse lawsuits.Much of the opposition to the law in California came from school districts, which warn the law goes too far. Lawsuits filed up to four decades after the fact make it much harder to gather evidence because witnesses are more likely to have moved away or died. Plus, the law changes the legal standard for liability, making it easier for victims to win in court.And if victims can prove entities tried to cover up the abuse, the court can multiply the damages by three.“We don’t want to minimize or trivialize the trauma that’s associated with inappropriate sexual conduct in schools,” said Troy Flint, spokesman for the California School Boards Association. “This bill has a very real chance of bankrupting or impoverishing many districts which would inhibit our ability to properly serve today’s students and students in years to come.” 4270

As voters in seven states go to the polls on Tuesday, ex-Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Bernie Sanders will hold campaign rallies in Cleveland as cases of the COVID-19 spread nationwide. On Monday, Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine announced that three cases of coronavirus have been confirmed in the Cleveland area. DeWine, who is a Republican governor who endorsed President Donald Trump in 2016, said he would not attend, but said he did not want to interfere in political rallies. The city's mayor, Frank Jackson, also said that he has no plans of banning large events. But DeWine has recently taken a stand against large events in Ohio. Last week, the governor ordered fans not to attend the Arnold Classic fitness competition, which draws thousands of bodybuilding and athletics fans to Columbus. This came despite the objections of Arnold Schwarzenegger and his staff. As results roll in from Tuesday's "Super Tuesday II" primaries, both Biden and Sanders are expected to speak before supporters just miles apart.Infectious disease expert Dr. Anthony Fauci was asked whether campaign rallies should press on amid the spread of COVID-19. Health experts said the public, especially those at a greater risk of encountering complications from coronavirus exposure, should practice in social distancing for the foreseeable future. "If you are talking about a campaign rally at a place where there is no community spread, I think the judgement to have it might be a good judgment," Fauci said. "If you want to talk about large gatherings that a place where you have community spread, I think that is a judgment call and if someone decides they want to cancel it, I would not publicly criticize them." 1704
