News Briefs Illinois College Sets AIDS Week EventsSeptember 26, 2002 A note from TheBody.com: Since this article was written, the HIV pandemic has changed, as has our understanding of HIV/AIDS and its treatment. As a result, parts of this article may be outdated. Please keep this in mind, and be sure to visit other parts of our site for more recent information! To mark AIDS Awareness Week during the first week of October, Elgin Community College in Elgin, Ill., has planned activities for its student body and area residents, including free HIV tests, a 5K walk and a photo documentary. The "Faces of AIDS" photography exhibit features portraits of HIV-positive people accompanied by stories about their lives. "The documentary really breaks down barriers because it shows that whites, blacks, gays and straight people have AIDS," said Jarrig Vesser, coordinator of student life at the college. In addition, four sections of the AIDS Memorial Quilt will be on display. For more information, call 847-214-7370.
