The last major blood drive of the semester is a crucial one because blood supplies are low following
Thanksgiving and will not be replenished again by students in the area until mid-January.
Key Blood Drive to Start Today
■ The semester’s final Alpha
Phi Omega-sponsored blood
drive will be in Great Hall.

The end of the semester means late
night study sessions for many, hours spent
with noses in books and eyes fixed blankly
on computer screens.
But for the people at the American Red
Cross and for those in area hospitals, the
end of the semester means a dangerous
time for blood bank levels.
Richard Kwok, a senior from Raleigh
and the Alpha Phi Omega Bloodmobiie
co-chairman, said APO’s latest blood drive,
which will be held today and Thursday
from 11 a.m. t04:30p.m. in the Great Hall,
would be crucial for maintaining the
Triangle’s blood supplies.
“This is the last drive before exams, and
during the holiday season the demand for
Monastery a Stop on Information Superhighway
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
ABIQUIU, N.M. The Monastery of
Christ in the Desert is a cluster of adobe
buildings in a remote river canyon where
monks spend their days praying and work
ing and their nights reading by kerosene
lamps.
It’s also a stop on the information super
highway. In a modern-day twist on the
ancient tradition of monks as scribes, the
little Benedictine monastery has a home
page on the Internet’s World Wide Web.

blood is very great in Orange County,”
Kwok said. “This is the last chance to give
until mid-January.”
Daphne Burrows, blood services con
sultant for the Blood Services Carolinas
Region said high schools and colleges ac
counted for 25 percent of the blood do
nated in the area. “They’re very important
to us,” she said.
The drive will be particularly important
because it is sandwiched in between major
holidays and only one residence hall has a
blood drive scheduled after this one, Bur
rows said.
“Just coming off Thanksgiving we have
pretty much of a deficit,” she said. “It’s
kind of our last shot to do anything on
campus.”
“It’s..really, really important,” agreed
Niki Boyd, a junior from Cary and Blood
mobile co-chairwoman. “A big portion of
the blood donated (in this area) comes
from students. And a lot more blood is
used over the holidays because there are a
lot more accidents.”
The blood drive is the fourth one spon
tic life, browse the monastery’s gift shop or
even listen to a Gregorian chant. Or they
can request to be remembered in the prayers
of the monks who gather in the chapel
seven times daily, starting at 4 a.m.
Located along the Rio Chama in the
Santa Fe National Forest at the end of 13
miles of narrow, rutted dirt road, the Ro
man Catholic monastery has no phone or
electric service. It relies on cellular phones
for its computer linkup. The only electric
ity to the main building is solar generated.
Heat is provided by burning wood.

sored by APO this year, and while Kwok
said the drives in August and September
were very successful, he said interest often
waned as the semester went on.
“The first ones are strong because people
are just coming back, and they haven’t
given yet,” Boyd said. “October is usually
the lowest.”
People who do donate blood are re
quired to wait 56 days before giving again
to allow their bodies to recuperate. So
those who gave in the first two drives of this
semester should be able to give their vital
fluid this time around. “That gives us hope
that it’ll be fairly successful,” Boyd said.
Kwok said people’s fears were a com
mon reason for them not to give blood. “A
lot of people are just afraid of needles, so
they don’t want to give,” he said. “That’s
probably the most popular excuse.”
But he said he thought that was a poor
reason for not helping out those in need,
and said donors had little to worry about.
“It’s all a very sterile practice,” Kwok said.
“It’s very safe. The Red Cross does a great
job.”
As early as the fourth century, the
scriptorium the room where Christian
monks did their copying—was a source of
revenue. And it was that age-old concern
about supporting itself that propelled Christ
in the Desert into cyberspace.
A couple of years ago, the monastery
contracted to computerize library card cata
logs. In June, it joined the World Wide
Web and advertised that it would design
web sites for others. “After all,” says the
monastery’s home page ad, “we’ve been
making pages for 1,500 years.”
