Health and Safety Chapel

SAMSUNG            Tuesday we held our annual Health and Safety Chapel at PIU, where we invite local health and security professionals in to talk to the PIU family about issues that are especially pertinent to college students, such as dorm epidemics and campus emergency situations. Christel Reichert, an RN, talked to the students about health issues that tend to be a problem within college dorms such as food poisoning, viruses like meningitis and other issues caused by people living close together. It is always fun to talk about the symptoms of these problems right before lunch. <smile> Ambrose Constantino, a security expert for the Guam Guard, focused on “active shooter scenarios” and the importance of having a plan ready for the situation. We appreciate very much these professionals donating their time to make our campus a safer place. (My camera battery went dead after the first picture so I didn’t get a picture of Ambrose.)
