"University joins in gathering donations"

By Rachel Witkowski
News Editor

Administrators, faculty and students at the University of North Florida have been working together to seek donations for those affected by Hurricane Katrina.

Kids’ Kits, a campaign to provide supplies to children left homeless by Katrina, was initiated by faculty from the communications department and was open Sept. 6 to donations from anyone in Jacksonville.


University plans for the worst

More than 1,000 people have disappeared after Hurricane Katrina hit Louisiana, leaving many students homeless and without an institution. Universities are left to wonder where the hammer will fall next.

In September 2004, University of North Florida students were evacuated from the residence halls in response to the threat of Hurricane Frances. For many students, evacuating UNF and returning home involved turning south, into the storm.
