You are trying to use the college scholarship to solve the problem of poor families....sorry, that's not the intent...A discussion about whether kids should get paid is a separate discussion IMO. My point was simply to point out that kids on scholly have everything THEY need with the assistance of a pell grant. Their family may not have everything they need and the kid may not have everything they want, but that's not the purpose of a scholarship. You think the school should pay the parent's rent and electric bill..I don't....again, a sep discussion

Without wading into the debate between @NJHusky and @WingU-Conn, I will say that I found it a little silly for a person with a meal plan at UConn to claim hunger. Yes, on a given night, one might feel hungry after all the dining halls and Grab & Gos close. This is not a big deal, however, because that person will quite healthily survive until breakfast the next morning, and he can avoid the situation in the future by bringing something back to the dorm/apartment.

Not that this is the answer, but was when I was living in a dorm, we would load up backpacks with food from the cafes and fill our cabinets and fridges for late night snacks.
