On March 2, Ann Santos (Univ. of Wisconsin, Stevens Point) and her co-worker, Suzi Hubbard (right), spearheaded a birthday party for Dr. Seuss! “The Lorax” was the center of attention, and the staff lunched on green eggs (deviled) and ham (sandwiches). Everyone learned about the Lorax by taking turns reading from the book of the same name. (It’s a fun place to work!) A pineapple upside-down cake with whipped cream was topped by a few birthday candles. Kohl’s stores are offering several of Dr. Seuss’s books and stuffed animals to go with them (only $5 each), as well as “The Green Book.” All profits go toward children’s initiatives nationwide. Some Phoenix alums have purchased these products, which fit in with Delta Zeta’s “Pink Goes Green” campaign. For instance, “The Lorax” is about much more than strange little critters described in outlandish words and rhymes. Its message is we must conserve our environment.
