MOC sorority sponsors reading visits to elderly
Mount Olive College
Some Mount Olive College students have been participating in a community involvement project called "Reading for Joy."
Sponsored by the Omega Upsilon Sorority, the program provides a way for undergraduate students to visit and read to retirement home residents. They have been enjoying the book "Big Fish," by Daniel Wallace.

As a librarian, I think that this is a *great* outreach program! More orgs should consider doing something like this, whether it's picture books to kids in the hospital or novels to seniors.
