For our rivalries In the BCC, Bowdoin is leading Bates and Colby both by 5 as they make up a tight lead pack. Great work representing Maine liberal arts colleges! For USM/UMF/UMO, there's a three way tie between USM, USM nursing, and UMF. UMO is only behind by 1. Awesome job!

+1 for Bowdoin! Diego Villamarin (Bowdoin '20) getting out to donate platelets. Fun fact: platelets only last 5 days so the need for blood products is ongoing. Thanks to all of the @AmericanRedCross workers+volunteers and to all our donors so far!

Lastly, huge thank you to @ElianaMM23 and @bowdoinorient for talking to us about Blood Donation! Incredibly happy to see Maine come together in times like these!

Incredible! Follow this thread to see how the American Red Cross and its amazing volunteers+coordinators are keeping donors distant and safe!

For our Bowdoin/Bates/Colby rivalry, Bowdoin is starting to gap Bates and Colby with a 9 donation lead. Between USM/UMF/UMO, there is a tight spread but USM nursing holds the lead with UMF and USM close behind! This early in the month, it's still anyone's game..
