Hey, Everybody!

    ~The "Save A Life, Help Nicole" Bone Marrow Registry Drive was awesome
and I [on the behalf of the RHSA] would like to thank all of you that
helped publicize this event. We registered 106 people, 6 of which were
Caucasians - This broke the record of 78 registered for a drive like
this, so great job! Our campus came together because of your efforts,
whether it was by getting the PSBC to go to McMahon, writing an awesome
article in the Daily, creating a "get well" card for Nicole Howard,
informing your constituents, or getting your residents to check it out and
donate. All I can say is "WOW" and that I hope all universities across the
nation take this program on in their campus. I commend you all on your
efforts and help. Thank you and have a great day! Peace.

Thankfully Yours,
  Ansel Olson
