ADDITIONS:
- encourage students to be vigilant about and respond to any acts of
physical or emotional violence against Arab-Americans

- approach all organizations on campus to ask for "loose change" & donate
to the Red Cross

- the Red Cross may need help staffing their emergency phone lines

- volunteer aid during the blood drive

- engage students in understanding this event in Sociology and Human
Services/Social Work classes 

- use reflection to allow students to explore and express their feelings
and reactions
