College Flood Relief Center

Thu., Jun. 22, 1972

After extensive flooding in the Carlisle area caused many to become homeless, the College made the decision to offer lodging and food to those in need. Fifty-five students and former graduates worked tirelessly to register flood victims and offer information. Overall, 158 people were housed and over 550 meals were served. The Red Cross and Civil Defense personnel also aided in the relief efforts.
