Philadelphia University where I teach had its second annual Day of Service today. Classes were canceled and students and faculty were expected to choose from a lengthy list of projects, a worthy cause they would work on. Some were quite organized and some were less so.
I joined a group who knit hats for premature infants to wear in the hospital. We were referred to a web site which had many patterns for hats, booties and other items infants could use and we showed up with our yarn and needles and knit away.

Some of our hats.

Students, faculty and staff all joined in creating a mother load of hats to be donated to an area hospital. I worked with a smaller splinter group and the picture shows some of our results.
