On November 12, 2025, Snow College held the blood drive for both students and community

members. The blood drive took place in the Noyes Building, Founder's Hall, and started at 9:00

am.

Students and community members were asked to fill out a fast pass, which was a

waiver with a lot of questions asking about their medical background. Once this was

completed, they would be called to a table, where their blood pressure and blood would

be tested. This is a simple procedure that tells them if blood can be donated.

Once the blood was checked and safe to take, they would start taking the blood. It

lasted only a few minutes to get everything they needed, then the students and other

community members could leave. However, some people did experience dizziness and

lightheadedness, where they would have to lie down, be given a juice box or snack, and

have a wet rag on their head.

Many people who donated blood had a good experience,

while some did not. This event is done every year, and many

students and community members participate in it.
