CHIMP TREATS:
Students enrolled in the course PHIL-215 Humans, Animals and Nature
gathered on May 1 to pack up treats to send to Chimp Haven, an
independent, non-profit organization in Louisiana that provides lifetime
care for chimpanzees who have been retired from medical research, the
entertainment industry or are no longer wanted as pets. The students,
pictured from left, Emilie Knight '10, Nicole Katz '09, Jace Haestad
'10, Dominic Ireland '09, and Qianqian Lin '11, and peers, used their
own meal points to purchase treats for the chimps. |
