Members of Northeast’s Students Activities Council gave over 250 hugs and 150 high fives to the College community in order to build a campus culture where everyone feels welcomed and connected.

The day was part of a national movement, which saw over 26 student groups across the country pledge to give over 19 thousand hugs. (Courtesy Northeast Community College)
