Go Red for Women Day Teachers, staff and students: Friday, February 1 is national Go Red for Women day. This is a movement dedicated to raising awareness of heart disease in women. Heart disease kills 460,000 women a year in the United States alone. Here at MacArthur we would like to join in this national awareness day by wearing one of our favorite colors – red. Friday is spirit day on campus so this will be easy. Just wear something red (whether it’s a shirt, pants, shoes, jewelry, or whatever) to show your support for women and the fight against heart disease.	2-01-08
