Six Lawrentians participated in an AIDS Walk last Sunday along Milwaukee's lakefront that raised $414,176 for the AIDS Resource Center of Wisconsin. The annual walk is Wisconsin's largest AIDS fundraiser, and celebrat­ ed its 15th anniversary this year. The ARCW promotes AIDS pre­ vention and education, provides ser­ vices to victims of AIDS and HIV, and promotes advocacy and research for AIDS issues throughout Wisconsin. Lawrentians participating includ­ ed Brian Hilgeman, Korbyn Doucette, Chris Snapp, and Andy York, who are members of the Phi Kappa Tau frater­ nity, Kristina Nockleby, and Emily Klosiewski. Walkers created e-mail lists of friends and family and collected online donations. Hilgeman said that the four Phi Taus raised over $300, "which is pretty good for college stu­ dents."
