Bleeding for a cause

The Leonard Carmichael Society's American Red Cross Blood Drive opened today in Carmichael Hall, netting 80 donors and nearly 57 pints of blood, according to co-coordinator Ashley Seenauth, a sophomore. In addition to Tufts participants, the drive also drew members of the neighboring communities, according to Seenauth, who is also an assistant photo editor for the Daily. As part of a GAYpril initiative, the LGBT community encouraged members of the Greek community and others to make their donations on behalf of men who have sex with men, who are federally barred from donating.
