Student Nutrition Access Center (SNAC)

Our Services

The Student Nutrition Access Center, or SNAC, is the location of USU's food pantry. Our mission is to provide Aggies with a hunger-free education by being a supportive and inclusive environment that offers nutritious and diverse food options while also fostering educational opportunities to empower students in their academic pursuits. SNAC is not supported by student fees, so anyone in the USU Community can access the services and resources.

Assessment of Food Insecurity Challenges & Impact of the Student Nutrition Access Center at Utah State University: Phase 1

The Student Nutrition Access Center (SNAC) operates as the on-campus food pantry at Utah State University (USU). Three of USU’s campuses, located in Logan, Blanding, and Price, Utah had a SNAC pantry at the time of this study. In the 2023-2024 academic year, a cross-sectional survey was deployed among USU students (n = 1538), faculty (n = 76), and staff (n = 135), including the main campus and campuses throughout Utah, to:

Determine awareness, access, and support of SNAC among USU populations;
Identify personal characteristics, food security issues, and service experiences of current SNAC service users;
Evaluate individual health, social, and economic impacts of SNAC on service users; and
Assess food security issues of USU students at the non-residential Statewide campuses.
