Second Course is a new way for students to get themselves fed on their college campus! Students can get notifications of free food, snacks, refreshments, or even desserts on campus. Simply see an alert, claim a portion, then you are ready to pick up your prize. Great for clubs and event organizers who ordered too much food. Use Second Course to get more members! Also an effective resource for universities to improve food security among college students, as well as food waste on campus! Currently only available at San Diego State University.
