March 26, 2012

The University of Wyoming Freshman Senate is holding a raffle to raise money to cover medical expenses for Cale McCormick, a UW student who was seriously injured when he was hit by a car in early February.

Tickets cost $5 each and are being sold at a table in the Wyoming Union breezeway and at the ASUW office in the lower level of the union.
