Campus Challenge Supports Organ Donation

The Health Communication class is running a campus campaign, called Give and Let Live, asking students, faculty and staff to register to become organ donors.  The campus community is invited to stop by the table outside the Student Center from 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. from April 16 – 20 and fill out a donor registration card and become an organ donor.  This act is the ultimate Jesuit act of being men and women for others.
