ANGEL TREE
There is a tree in Bede Lounge that began with names of some 40 men, women and children from the area that are either homeless or living in shelters in Crookston. We still need people to stop by and take the names of some of these needy individuals. You buy a gift for them and return the gift wrapped with the angel tag on the outside by December 22. The amount you spend is up to you. This holiday, have your family help those less fortunate in our community. The Angel Tree is sponsored by the Service-Learning Office.

Congratulations to Glenice Johnson for being nominated for the Thomas Ehrlich Faculty Award for Service Learning.

The award encourages the integration of service learning into academic programs and supports faculty efforts to institutionalized service learning.
