First Year Mails Columbia ID to Starving Child in Africa, "I Gave Him 108 Meals," Says Student

CC First Year Jeff Birst was filled with a smug sense of satisfaction last week. "Because of me, there is a child in Africa right now who can eat 108 meals, provided that he can make it to John Jay Dining Hall before the end of this year." Birst urges that other First Years with excess meals do the same, "so we can all do our part to end world hunger."
