A Day Without Art will be taking place throughout campus on World AIDS Day, December 1st. Artwork around campus will be covered as a memorial to people who have died of AIDS. This memorial pays tribute to famous artists and those whose careers had yet to begin. We will never know how much we really lose due to the AIDS epidemic. Please join us in honoring these lives.

Along with attending these great events; one of the easiest ways you can support World AIDS day is to wear a red ribbon, a symbol of HIV and AIDs awarness. Free ribbons can be found in dinning commons, clusters offices and in the campus center December 1st.

Help us spread the word about these events.
