Student Activities
On Wednesday, July 22nd, the Bartlett Campus Student Activities Council (SAC) sponsored a blood drive. A Lifeblood bloodmobile was on campus to take blood donations from many willing students, instructors, and staff members. Medical Office Specialist student Nicole Lumley (left) was one of those who graciously gave, saying "I donated blood today because I wanted to help save lives." According to Leslie Poole of Lifeblood, each donation can save up to four lives. In addition, Dr. Robert Burnett's Pharmacology II class went aboard the bloodmobile to learn more about blood donation including the procedure for drawing blood.
SAC also sponsored a Kid's Safety Day on Saturday, July 25th. Representatives from the Bartlett Police Department and Bartlett Fire Department offered safety tips to children of our students. ID kits that included materials to take fingerprints were available for parents to take home in case of an emergency. Business Administration student Georgia Haynes said her children (right) were excited about doing the kits, and "I knew that these would be helpful, if something ever happened."
