University President John T. Casteen III has designated November "HIV/AIDS Awareness Month" at the University.
A slate of activities extends the annual observance from its usual one week to one month.
University observance initially was created as a service learning project through "HIV/AIDS: A Personal and Social Perspective," a School of Nursing course taught by Reba Moyer Childress.
A variety of awareness and fund-raising events, including an a cappella concert, a vigil and free HIV testing, will be held throughout November and into early December.
In addition to these events, awareness will be raised around Grounds with an awareness banner contest and an AIDS memorial quilt displayed in Newcomb Hall.
