From UCLA & CSUN
Good to see that campuses throughout the region aren't letting the dire needs of the Haitian quake victims slip from concern and action. A dozen Bruin medical personnel, both specialists in emergency care and operating room experts, will head to Port-au-Prince this week for a two-week stay, helping to man a U.S. Navy-established field hospital. The school, where there will be a major on-campus fund-raiser on Thursday, says this medical aid will only be the start from Westwood. Meantime, in Northridge, student athletes have taken two steps to assist the needy in Haiti, by collecting hundreds of pairs of athletic shoes for quake victims and joining in a Big West athletic conference pledge that proceeds of an annual coin drive will go to address the huge needs on the island nation caused by the recent temblor.
