Coverage of the Atlanta/Greenville Trip

From tomorrow's BV by Elizabeth Grady

"Twenty-one students made the trip south to help rebuild the orphanage, which burned down in 2007. The students stayed from Jan. 5 to 13 and worked on tasks including installing piping and hanging ceilings.

Steve Gearhart, a senior physics major, was responsible for the organization of the trip, Jim Mahar, coordinator of BonaResponds and associate professor of finance, said.

According to Ally Kotz, a sophomore elementary special education major, the goal was much broader than just rebuilding.

"The main goal of this trip was to help as many people as we could," Kotz said"
