THE WEEKLY FRAME III — WEEK 4

Food

Photos by MARISSA DING & FIN LIU

While food is considered one of life’s simplest pleasures, it has the potential to go beyond simplicity. Each meal allows us to connect with others and escape life’s hurdles for a minute. Each dish has a unique identity in its flavors, textures and cultural influences, which combine to create harmony. However, for university students, food’s potential often stays simple.

For this “Weekly Frame,” staff photographers Marissa Ding and Fin Liu capture more than just the simplicity of dishes that university students consume — they give a glimpse into the diet, details and emotions of the collegiate dining experience.
