With tuition, fees, textbook costs and living expenses, it has become increasingly difficult for students to juggle the costs of living with the costs of obtaining a degree, and thus many students are finding themselves choosing between essentials such as food and the costs of college. The food pantry was established to provide non-perishable food to those in need at Ohio State Newark. Only a student ID is required to utilize the Campus Corner.

The Campus Corner: Student Food Pantry opened in 2017 as a direct response to the need among our community of students for more resources to fight food insecurity.
