Events

The Bookstore sponsors a number of social and cultural activities, such as book signings and specialty book fairs. We also are involved in a number of charitable events. Our Dead Book Sale in the fall helps fund a scholarship for students who lost their books because of unforeseen circumstances.

Bookstore Food Drive

Thank you for opening your heart this past holiday season!

Our annual bookstore food drive raised over 500 non-perishable items and our giant stocking raffle raised more than $500. Lissette Vega (Day Custodian Alfonso Vega’s daughter) was the winner! We delivered the food and check to the Cicero-Berwyn-Stickney Anti-Hunger Foundation on Dec. 21st, 2010.

Thank you to all the people who contributed to this worthy cause, specially to:

  • Fran Wedge & her Physical Therapist Assistant students for their assistance with this event.
  • Bookstore employees Hernan Alonso, Tito Gonzalez and Ruben-Peter Molina for delivering the food.
  • Tim Visk and the MC Classified Staff Union for their generous food donation.
