Day 87: Special Olympics starts today!

They had a special guest! Rutgers football player Eric LeGrand who was paralyzed during a football game in October (http://www.foxnews.com/sports/2010/10/17/rutgers-football-player-paralyzed-neck/) who is beating the odds. I couldn't think of anyone better for them to see. Not only was Eric there but a bunch of Rutgers football players escorting the athletes in.

Day 34: To Write Love on Her Arms

I've said it before and I will say it again. There is a benefit to working for a college as I get the opportunity to hear people speak that I wouldn't normally get the chance to. Tonight was Jamie Tworkowski who founded the "Two Write Love on Her Arms" campaign (http://www.twloha.com/) to raise awareness and bring to light people who suffer from depression, addiction, self harm, and suicidal ideations.

Jamie was so cool and just listening to him you could hear and feel his passion for what he does!

Day 30: meeting an inspiring woman

What do you do on your vacation? I go to sexual violence awareness events...okay so I may have a bias to this event but...that's beyond my point. The point is: I got to meet Angela Rose tonight who is the founder of PAVE (promoting awareness victim empowerment) she is taking her rape and turning it into the fuel that drives her work. I was in awe...

Day 3: Meeting 2 amazing women

These two women go around and talk about sexual violence and empowering college students to make change. Plus...it's always nice to actually meet your facebook friends :-)
