A campus memorial service will be held to remember the victims of the South Asian earthquake and tsunami. The Saman Dance from Aceh will be performed by Indonesian Student Association members. Speakers include President Gregory Geoffroy, Ames Mayor Ted Tedesco, GSB President Sophia Magill, Tahira Hira, Roy Salcedo, and others to be announced. The event will close with a candle-lighting on the Terrace of the Memorial Union. Tsunami Relief Project volunteers will collect donations of cash and checks around campus through Friday, January 21.
Stay for the entire event, including the brief question-and-answer session that follows the formal presentation. Most events run 75 minutes.
Sign-ins are after the event concludes. For lectures in the Memorial Union, go to the information desk in the Main Lounge. In other academic buildings, look for signage outside the auditorium.
