The University of Arkansas at Monticello’s
College of Technology at Crossett collected 155 units of
blood during its April 11
Life Share Blood Drive. Mitch Powell,
Student Services coordinator, praised director Shela
Upshaw and UAM-CTC nursing students for leading the
drive in a campus-wide e-mail. Upshaw confirmed the
actual count was two more units than the 153 units
originally mentioned in the campus-wide e-mail.
The Crossett campus total more than doubled the
amount of blood collected at the Monticello campus.
According to a campus-wide e-mail, the April 23
Life Share Blood Drive collected 73 units in the Gibson University
Center.
The Blood Drive Team consisted of representatives from
Life Share, UAM Knights, Alpha Phi Alpha, University
Center Staff and UAM Student Health Services.
According to the campus-wide e-mail,
Phillip Thomas, donor resources coordinator for
Life Share Blood Centers, praised the Monticello drive.
“It was our most successful drive yet!” he said.
