Candlelight vigil to be held for tsunami victims tonight


The KU Campaign for Tsunami Relief has scheduled a speaker and a candlelight vigil tonight to commemorate the one-month anniversary of the tsunami in Southeast Asia. Don Steeples is scheduled to speak at 7 p.m. at room 120 in Budig Hall and the vigil is scheduled to begin at 8:30 at the Campanile

The campaign was developed by Student Senate, KU UNICEF and the Center for Community Outreach at KU.

The death toll has climbed to more than 200,000 since the waves hit on Dec. 26.

Steeples, geology professor and vice provost for scholarly support, is scheduled to repeat his discussion on tsunamis. He gave the lecture earlier this month.
