Colleges Against Cancer will work to "paint campus purple" to bring awareness to cancer and the upcoming Relay for Life.

Today is Balloon Day. From 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., the organization will give out purple balloons with event details on them. Students are encouraged to tie the balloons to their backpacks for the day as they walk around campus. At 6:55 p.m., balloons will be released by the Fabiano Botanical Gardens. 

On Tuesday, students are encouraged to take pictures of any chalking, painting or tree ribbons by them and use the hashtag #CmichRelay on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. 

Wednesday will feature a Luminaria Ceremony at 8:30 p.m. at the Charles V. Park Library.

On Thursday, Colleges Against Cancer instructs students to wear as much purple as they can and talk about the upcoming event.

Relay for Life will take place April 25 in the Indoor Activity Center.
