Unique AIDS Awarness Student Program

Westmont college hosted an interesting demonstration this week as part of World AIDS Week which runs from Nov 26 2007 – Dec 2 2007.

"A group of Westmont students brought attention to World AIDS Week by placing hundreds of small signs depicting children on Kerrwood Lawn, Monday and Tuesday Nov. 26-27. The placards represented the 600 children orphaned by AIDS every day."

What I like about this and similar demonstrations, is it’s impossible for someone to not pay attention or be curious. It interacts with the "car-to-class" apathetic students who never show up at any campus event. It’s also cost effective and easy to host.

Is anyone else doing anything interesting for AIDS Week? Did you know it was AIDS Week?
