BU student athletes give the gift of reading: In a holiday tradition now in its seventh year, more than 100 members of BU athletic teams visited several Brighton and Allston elementary schools, the Franciscan Children's Hospital in Brighton, and the Jackson Mann School and the Horace Mann School for the Deaf in December and early January to read to second grade students and present each student with a book as a holiday gift. Pictured at the Jackson Mann School in Allston are women's softball team members Christy King (CAS'05) (left) and Abbey Pauley (CAS'04). Classroom teachers received a copy of Make Way for Ducklings, and each classroom was given a plush toy of Rhett, the BU Terrier. Rhett joined the men's and women's teams, posed for pictures, and signed autographs for the students. Gift books were donated through BU's Business Affairs Office and Barnes & Noble at BU.
