Behrend students are making a difference in their community Reality Check to build homes with Habitat for Humanity in November On Nov. 14, Reality Check will be doing a Habitat for Humanity build in Union City, PA. Volunteering for community service is a common passion for many Behrend stu dents, and Habitat for Humanity provides an outlet for this passion. "I did a couple of habitats before," said Ellie Repkova, a 7th semester international business and finance student who is heading the Nov. 14 build, "and actually, we worked on the house that we'll be working on in No- 8:00 p.m. - 12:00 a.m. @ McGarvey Commons Drag Show and Contest for Best Drag King/Queen sponsored by SAF and Trigon • $5O to Texas Roadhouse 7:30 p.m. @ Reed 115 Beacon editorial board meeting vember. We worked on the founda tions in the spring and now the house is standing, so I guess we'll be working on the walls next." MIKE 0. WEHRER nett t editor "I think there's at least one build per month," continued Repkova, "basically, any student organization that wants to do a build with Habi tat can sign up for one with Cynara Stubbs, who coordinates these kind of service projectd." "This upcoming build is being sponsored by reality check," said Repkova, "but I know a lot of the time, Greek organizations will sponsor a build." "They organized two builds already this year, but no one really showed up for them," said Rep kova. "I think it was because they weren't really well adver tised. I'm actually in kind of a weird situation because I have more people who want to go than we have space to take them. We can take 12 people, and about 14 sign up, which is good if people who signed upcan't make it."
