As the Holiday decorations start going up (earlier and earlier every year, might I add), we start thinking whimsical thoughts about sitting around the fireplace, hot cocoa in hand, carols on the radio.... And, more thoughts of what should I get such-and-such, where should I put the tree, how many lights will I put out this year....
Sometimes we forget though, that not everyone has those luxuries... worrying about gift-giving (and receiving), wrapping paper, putting cards in the mail......
Some people are a lot less fortunate and have to worry about where their next meal will be, how they will stay warm, who will help them in their time of need....
I would like to ask everyone to think of someone less fortunate, and donate warm socks (new or gently used) to the Sock Drive going on next week (November 12th-November 16th). Many people think to donate clothes, but socks are in demand. And, dry socks are very important to those trying to stay warm.
There will be collection boxes around campus, and if you can't find one, drop off donations at UC 3140 (The Honors Program Office).
