The University of Louisiana at Monroe Epsilon Gamma chapter and Grambling State University Epsilon Delta chapter of Iota Phi Theta Fraternity hosted an event in observation of National Read Across America Day.

Both chapters held reading sessions at Cypress Point Elementary School and are holding book drives on the ULM and GSU campuses until March 15. Donations of new and lightly used books will be taken at the ULM and GSU Student Union Buildings. Collected books will sponsor children of regional organizations.
