Excerpts from the article:

Third-year College student Justine Broecker initiated the effort when she applied for funding from the Parents Committee, a fundraising body comprised of students’ parents, last March. The committee awarded the project $1,800, which covered half of the CPR training fees, while Residence Life provided the other half of the funding.

The actual training session went really well, and people were really excited about it,” Broecker said.

Around 200 RAs practiced on mannequins. Residence Life plans to expand its efforts to promote “resuscitation awareness,” Broecker added.
