Food for Fines: A Students Perspective

We’ve all incurred some kind of fine, be it from a movie rental, library book, and so on. That annoying, tiny fee follows you until you pay it back. Now, what if you could pay those back, and instead of a slightly lighter pocket, you got a warm fuzzy feeling? From Monday November 16th to Friday December 18th, the CLC Grayslake Campus Library will be accepting an item of donated food (nonperishable, so preferably canned) as payment for a fine. So, for every can of Campbells Cream of Mushroom or other good, you can waive a fee AND assist the COOL Food Pantry, located in Waukegan. Just bring your donation to the Circulation Desk on the first level of the library!
