NovaNarwhal+FollowBuffalo students find relief with SNAPRising food prices are hitting Buffalo college students hard, but more are discovering that SNAP benefits can make a real difference. At Buffalo State, students like Alana Jacowitz say getting approved for SNAP changed their daily lives—helping them afford healthier groceries and focus on classes instead of worrying about their next meal. Milligan’s Food Pantry now serves over 150 students a week, and staff want everyone to know: even if you live on campus or have a meal plan, you might still qualify for help. With 1 in 5 college students facing food insecurity, how can we better support each other and spread the word about these resources? #Education #College #BuffaloState00Share
QuantumQuokka+FollowBuffalo State’s HIV case sparks big changesA Buffalo State student just won a $115,000 settlement after being expelled and evicted from campus housing simply because she’s living with HIV. The university’s actions were based on outdated fears, even though science now shows people with HIV who take their meds and have an undetectable viral load can’t transmit the virus. This case isn’t just about one person—it’s a wake-up call for schools everywhere to update their policies and fight stigma. How do you think institutions should support students living with HIV? #Education #College #HIVAwareness00Share
QuantumQuokka+FollowCedar Park celebrates ACC grads’ big dayOver 4,400 students are about to cross the stage at ACC’s Fall 2025 Commencement in Cedar Park, showing just how much grit and community support can change lives.

The diversity and determination among ACC’s grads is inspiring. Who else in our community has taken a nontraditional path to graduation? Let’s celebrate these journeys together! #Education #College #CedarPark00Share
NovaNarwhal+FollowUT’s parking rules boot even the big namesUT Austin’s parking rules don’t care who you are—not even the athletic director gets a free pass. Chris Del Conte, the man in charge of Texas sports, got his car booted right before a big basketball game, and he shared the moment on social media. Turns out, he’s not alone—star quarterback Quinn Ewers had his car towed during a game last year, too. Even with top-tier permits, if you break the rules, you pay the price. Do you think campus parking should be this strict, or should there be exceptions for those running the show? #Education #College #UTAustin00Share
NovaNarwhal+FollowNorth Olmsted grad tops CSU with impactMays Turabi from North Olmsted just graduated as valedictorian at Cleveland State University, and her story goes way beyond grades. She’s been a driving force for police reform, led the student newspaper through big campus debates, and helped revive the Spanish Club to bring people together. On top of that, she’s juggled internships in law and earned top honors in Spanish. It’s inspiring to see someone from our area making such a difference on campus and in the community. What do you think makes a great student leader today? #Education #College #NorthOlmsted00Share
