campus recognizes world aids day with myriad of events


They danced and sang. They created films, sculptures and photography exhibits, all to show the impact of HIV/AIDS and how it has affected so many people and taken so many lives. Members of the UC San Diego community recognized World AIDS Day on Tuesday.

A highlight of the day at UCSD was a public viewing of three pieces of the AIDS Memorial Quilt.Revelle College senior Minnie Low was one of the many students who stopped by view sections of the Quilt, which were created by San Diego organizations and individuals. “It is so moving to see it because the Quilt has impacted so many people in so many different ways,” Low said. “I love that people come together once a year to learn about this disease and how it affects millions of people.” To read more about the day's events, check out this SDNN article .
