HUDS’s Yom Kippur Donations Suspect

To the editors:

Re: “Students Do Good for Yom Kippur,” news, Oct. 2.

While it is laudable that students and Harvard University Dining Services (HUDS) are donating money to hunger relief, the amount stated, a meager $2.46 per student, does not sound like the actual amount charged per student meal. Since the article does not say, your readers have no way of knowing whether this is unvarnished generosity on the part of HUDS or if the University is keeping the lion’s share of the cost of those missed meals.
