$5,500 awarded to the Nutrition and Dietetics Club

The OSU Nutrition Program’s Nutrition and Dietetics Club (NDC) is implementing an innovative expansion of extracurricular community building and learning activities for any undergraduate student with an interest in food and nutrition. Peer-elected student leadership, with faculty sponsor guidance, will curate a series of field trips exploring an array of food and nutrition organizations and businesses in the region.

This grant supports a Shark Tank-type pitch competition where students suggest a viable organization or business they would like to work with and develop an experiential learning opportunity for other OSU students. Mini stipends will be awarded to the five pitchers receiving the most student votes, allowing them to implement their plans.
