How do you feel the issue of homelessness affects you'

David Dunn, Senior, Arts and Science

"I have had only a few encounters with homeless people in Nashville. For the most part, it doesn’t affect my daily life."

Kei Tamaki, Junior, Arts and Science

"I do think that it’s an important issue, so I try to help them out on an individual level."

Brigit Bowers, Sophomore, Arts and Science

"I am aware of the inherent inequalities that contribute to such a great divide among classes. Therefore, I feel an obligation to help in whatever ways I can."

Sasha Feoktistov, Senior, Arts and Science

"I think homelessness and seeing homeless people reminds me of how much more fortunate I am than other people. It makes me want to give something back. To me, $1 is negligible, but to someone homeless it could buy a meal."

Steve Bienashski, Sophomore, Arts and Science

"While I’m at school it doesn’t affect me the same way as at home because, living close to New York, I see a lot of homeless people, and I feel like the government should create more programs to help them. "
