Students and Faculty Participate in Relay for Life
Engineering
students, faculty, and staff participated in the second Relay for Life: Fighting
Irish Fighting Cancer. Last year's organizers were surprised by participation
and donations. They raised $65,000, more than $30,000 above their initial
goal. This year a total of 51 teams (1,400 participants) exceeded the $80,000
goal. The College of Engineering "placed" third among all University
teams in the amount of money it raised, with individuals in the college raising
as much as $1,300 for the event.
Largely
a pledged walkathon -- where teams were required to have someone walking
on the track during the entire 16-hour event -- University participants employed
a variety of creative fundraising activities, including selling apple pies
and mums, a dunk tank, and a dance. The College of Engineering raised additional
funds via its "Picture with Santa" booth.
All
proceeds from the Relay for Life go directly to the American Cancer Society.
