Random Acts of Kindness (RAK) Week is officially February 14th – 20th. However, we want to celebrate when A Week students are on campus, too, so HEC is extending our RAK Week through February 26th. Beginning tomorrow, view our announcements daily for updates. Until then:

Follow the instructions on the RAK slide below for editing and sending.
