It's official, all of our seniors have graduated 👩🎓👨🎓!
Undergrad is a crazy stressful time where you are pulled in 10,000 directions. But all of you took the time to educate your peers, to fight for health equity in blood donation.

Happy Phlebotomists Recognition Week! 💉 ❤️ 🩸
We’re proud to celebrate the hardworking phlebotomists whose contributions in blood centers, medical laboratories and hospitals make transfusion medicine possible. Thank you for all you do!

Yesterday Michigan State University experienced a gut-wrenching tragedy.
This needless bloodshed, like so many others cases, could have been avoided with common sense gun laws.
We extend our deepest condolences to all those affected.

An especially pertinent message for #GivingTuesday2022. There is nothing more selfless than giving the gift of life to some 5 million Americans who need transfusions ever year.

And a special thanks to our chapter's community partners who make it all possible: @NU_Sports, @BoilerAlliance, @OSUWexMed, @osunursing, @OhioStateMed, @OhioState, @OhioStateAlumni, and the Ohio State Black Student Organization.
@osunursing @OhioStateMed, again thank you for the support. We recently did a large education event with Howard Law on the MSM deferral (see our website). We would love to put on another groundbreaking event for you on any topic in or related to transfusion medicine.
We are so proud of our @NorthwesternU, @LifeAtPurdue, @KentState, and @OhioState Blood Initiative chapters.
