GRIM REAPER

Every 40 minutes another person dies at the hands of a drunk driver.
On March 26th Henry Abbott enacted the Grim Reaper to teach students the dangers of drinking and driving.  Every 40 minutes, a gong sounded as the Grim Reaper claimed another member of the student body.  Students were able to see their friends act the part of a person that was killed by a drunk driver. These victims, who carried posters describing the circumstances of their "death,"  had their faces painted white and remained sillent throughout the remainder of the day.  The experience is very powerful for all involved.
