Food for Fine$
For the 19th straight year the Health Sciences Library is collecting Food for Fine$. For every dollar that is owed as late fees we are accepting one food item from now until December 19th. All donated food will in turn be donated to the St. Martin de Porres Center. Over the past years we have collected more than 300 food items/year over the Christmas food drive and hope to top that this year. Bring your food items to the elves at the Health Sciences Library and erase your fines!
