   <description>Food is a big part of everybody’s college experience. And that’s especially true for students with food allergies like Jake Gordon ’25. Jake describes how Minus 9, a new allergen-free station in Murray-Aikins Dining Hall, has helped him “worry less and enjoy his time at Skidmore.” It’s just one example of how the award-winning Dining Services team is working to make sure everyone enjoys a great meal and good company at Skidmore.</description>
