The University of Arkansas at Monticello held its bi-annual American Red Cross Blood Drive Sept. 14 in the University Center's Green Room.

The drive collected 67 units of blood, exceeding the goal by 49 percent.

“Many thanks for helping the Red Cross ensure a safe and continuous blood supply which can give the gift of life to people in need of blood,” said Terri Richardson, director of Student Health Services in a campus e-mail.

The Blood Drive Team consisted of representatives from the American Red Cross, the Knights, the Medical Sciences Club, University Center staff and Student Health Services. Some donors received Dukes of Hazard T-shirts for their efforts.
