Campus Kitchen puts excess to use Volunteers prepared more than 27,000 meals last year By Elise Angelopulos elise.angelopulos@marquette.edu

Campus Kitchen Marquette began in 2003 as a service initiative aimed to combat hunger throughout the Milwaukee area. Now, the organization has more than 200 volunteers who meet in the basement of O’Donnell Hall and prepare 500 to 600 meals each week to be delivered throughout Milwaukee. Amanda Parrell, the campus coordinator at CKMU, said her passion for eliminating hunger developed after taking part in both local and national food service programs. “After volunteering with Midnight Run during my

undergrad at Marquette, I spent two years teaching in Malawi with the Peace Corps,” Parrell said. “Both experiences showed poverty and hunger in different lights, but I felt I needed to do something. I came back to MU to pursue a Masters of Arts in Public Service.” Now, the Campus Kitchens Project has spread to 31 schools across the country, according to the CKMU website. Parrell said in 2011, CKMU distributed more than 27,000 meals to those in need. While CKMU primarily works out of O’Donnell Hall’s basement, the project also can be found at 12 other service sites in the Milwaukee area. The meals are prepared using leftover food collected from The Brew, Marquette Place and other dining establishments across campus and then sent to hungry children and adults at the

Members of all faiths gather to remember victims and families By Matt Gozun benjaminmatthew.gozun@marquette.edu

Guru Granth Sahib. The evening concluded with the distribution of candy, a Sikh tradition meant to symbolize the sweetness of God’s love and perseverance during times of tragedy. The Sikh Temple of Wisconsin in Oak Creek is located roughly 10 miles south of campus and has numerous worshippers with Marquette ties. Pardeep Kaleka, a 2001 alumnus whose father, Satwant Singh Kaleka was killed August 5, spoke at the vigil, where he memorialized his fallen father. “Sikhism to me is the way that you act and the way you treat other people,” Kaleka said. “It took

me a long time to understand just how much of a Sikh (my father) was. One of the biggest principles of Sikhism is that you work hard, you work with your own hands and whatever you make you give back to the community, thus we call it Seva. My dad’s hands were greasy all the time, and he had callouses over those hands all the time. Cuts, all the time.” Kanwardeep Singh Kaleka, whose uncle was Pardeep Kaleka’s father, said the tragedy was a wake up call to fight the ignorance he described as

The new dental school will increase the graduating class size from 80 to 100 students with additional classroom space.

Members of the Marquette, Sikh and greater Milwaukee communities gathered last night to commemorate the one month anniversary of the Oak Creek shooting. The somber vigil, held in front of the St. Joan of Arc Chapel, drew more than 50 participants, with many of the non-Sikh attendees wearing bandanas on their heads as a sign of solidarity. The approximately 40-minute event featured prayers and traditions from both the Catholic and Sikh faiths, a candle lighting, moment of silence, and a reading from the Sikh holy book, the
