Daily Debriefing
Students gathered to eat Nicaraguan food and listen to Latin music Wednesday night to raise money for the Tucker Foundation's Cross Culture Education and Service Program. The program will host its sixth annual trip during winter break to Siuna, one of the poorest regions of Nicaragua. Nica Night aimed to raise awareness about problems in Latin America and in Nicaragua in particular. Students viewed presentations in a "science fair" format on a variety of topics including upcoming elections, freshwater sharks in Lake Nicaragua and public health issues. Donations were requested at the door and an anonymous donor agreed to give $1 to the program for every attendee.
