On March 29 Olivia Obineme published an article for The Towerlight regarding Tau Kappa Epsilon's philanthropy event that was hosted in Paws. They raised over $500 for their new philanthropy, St. Jude's Research. It was called Rock for the Cure and featured four bands, one which included Fraternity and Sorority Life Coordinator Christian Miele.
The TKE Fraternity was able to raise even more money by holding a date auction and raffling off gift certificates. Fundraising chair C.T. Sartory said that they will still be raising money for the National Alzheimer's Foundation as well.
I think this story was written well and contained quotes from credible people. However, many people may not be aware or be informed about St. Jude's Research. I think it would have been helpful for the reporter to give a short description or a quote from someone in the fraternity about what this research foundation does. Other than that, the story was well written and I wish I could have went to this event since it sounds like it was for a very good cause.

Hi Ariel, this is Olivia Obineme. I want to thank you for complimenting my story "Rock for the Cure."
I am glad that people read what I write. I am also happy to see normal, average people like you and me spreading the word on organizations like St. Jude's Research.
Continue spreading the word!
Peace
