On Saturday, Feb. 28 the 57 Miles Initiative will host a Day of Service in Marion, AL. Students will be participating in service projects throughout the city, which include painting, gardening and exploring Marion. Students will leave Nott Hall at 10 a.m. and return to campus around 5 p.m. 57 Miles is an Honors College initiative that was founded in 2009. The program was aptly named for its partnership with Perry County, located 57 miles away. Perry County is located in the Black Belt region of Alabama. Interested students can sign up for the service day online at http://www.signupgenius.com/go/20f0f4fa4ad23a0fe3-57miles1.
