Akron Law, along with the American Heart Association, will host a “Coeds Go Red” luncheon on Wednesday, Feb. 22 from 11:30 a.m. – 1 p.m. in the Student Union Ballroom. At the event, a “heart-healthy” lunch will be served as information about the “Go Red for Women” movement is presented. Attendees will have the opportunity to participate in drawings for prizes including an $50 Barnes & Noble gift card (winners must be present). Also, the College of Nursing will offer free blood pressure screenings, BMI assessment and more. The lunch, which is open to all UA faculty, staff and students, is free of charge, however registration is required. Participants are encouraged to wear red to show support.
This event also affords a unique community service opportunity for Akron Law students to assist with registration, work at the luncheon table, and more. In addition to the benefits noted above, students participating in the community service opportunity will receive two hours counting toward their general community service graduation requirement.
Students interested in volunteering should contact Molly Palmer (molly.palmer@heart.org or 330-664-1908).
