The Pre-Med and Student Nurses Associations from NMU and MTU will engage in a friendly blood donor drive competition on Wednesday, March 22, to benefit the U.P. Regional Blood Center. Supplies are quickly depleted during the winter months, so the event will help the center to meet the demand at local hospitals. The NMU blood drive will be held from noon to 5 p.m. in the Halverson Hall lobby. Free pizza and refreshments will be available. To make an appointment, email Jennie at jkizer@nmu.edu.
