When Hurricane Katrina slammed into the Gulf Coast last fall, it forever altered the lives of those who call that area home. Carnegie Mellon responded in numerous ways, whether by raising money or sending groups of students to help in rebuilding efforts. But the university also supported the Gulf Coast region by allowing students from Tulane University to study at Carnegie Mellon. Though those students have since returned to New Orleans, Carnegie Mellon's relationship with Tulane continues this semester through Staff Council's "Beads for Tulane—Adopt a Campus" campaign.
