The votes have been counted, and the five topics we will pursue for our Online Community Advocacy Project are:
Soap Dispenser
A Healthier You
iPrint Stations for Morton
Recycling on Campus
Off-Campus Food Dollars
These pitches are now marked in boldface on the “Individual Topic Pitches” page. I encourage you to read through them. On Monday (2/15), we will sign up for topics.
