As the holiday season approaches, the Women’s Resource Center of Newport & Bristol Counties prepares for seasonal drives. Each year the Thanksgiving Day Program runs from October through November 21st. Donated goods are provided to families in need. Participating in this drive puts the giving back in Thanksgiving and services families deserving of celebration.

About 70 current sophomores and juniors at Salve Regina University piled into the O’Hare lecture room 260 on Oct. 30, to learn about the upcoming room draw.

For many students at Salve, the room draw can be more stressful than final exams. It can be especially stressful for sophomores who live in Hunt Hall, a freshman dorm this year because they received a bad room draw time.
