• Today, students and faculty in GRCC’s Secchia Institute of Culinary Education will donate all their tips from The Heritage Restaurant, a working classroom, to the cause.
• Theatre students are dedicating their Wednesday , January 24, performance of Art of Murder. This comedy is being produced by the GRCC Players student group and directed by GRCC alumnus Chris Grooms.
• All students and faculty in GRCC’s health programs, including Dental, Nursing, Occupational Therapy Assistant and Radiological Tech, will bring in fruit donations next week which will be sold on campus for $1 a piece. They also hope to raise awareness of healthy eating habits while selling.
Director of Student Life Eric Mullen, who oversees student organizations on GRCC’s campus says ideas are still percolating. In a campus-wide e-mail, GRCC President Steve Ender, congratulated students on their passion to help the people of Haiti and encouraged everyone at the college to participate in any way they are able.
All funds collected will be contributed directly to the Red Cross.
