SOUP IN THE QUAD: Project Hunger helped 80 students from SLU experience firsthand the life of the homeless. An event on the evening of Nov. 17 included a mock soup line and a sleep-out in SLU's quadrangle, both of which helped to raise awareness about the homeless and SLU's campus-wide food drive. Lisa Barry, president of Alpha Phi Omega, is pictured serving soup to junior Matt McMahon. (Photo by Mary Butkus)
