According to media department chairperson Bonnie Grimble, the media center staff members will continue their “Food For Fines” amnesty, in which students can turn in canned food in return for clearing any fines they owe to the media center.

“This is just an opportunity for students to both do good for the community and clear any money that they might owe to the media center,” Grimble said.

As for the current status of student participation in the amnesty, media manager Donna Prather said that while some students were bringing in canned goods, more students could donate.

“There are some cans coming in, but the cans aren’t coming in as quickly as we’d like,” Prather said. “More students need to donate.”
