While Hurricane Katrina's floodwaters might have receded from New Orleans, the outpouring of aid from UConn students is still flowing.

'The Hurricane Katrina relief efforts have been successful so far,' said Breyonne Golding, president of the UConn Hurricane Katrina Relief Organization, and a 5th-semester urban and community studies and political science double major. 'We started this effort the same week Katrina hit, which was the second week of school.'

According to the university's Hurricane Katrina relief page, the amount of aid raised as of Oct. 20 was $56,482. The goal for the semester is $75,000 in donations."
