Five first-year nursing students at Kishwaukee College were the recipients of Littmann Stethoscopes from the Community Support Group at 3M. Mike Ryan and Jon Pruitt, co-chairmen of the 3M Community Support Group, and Donna Engh, 3M Community Support Committee member, were on campus on Sept. 11 to award the stethoscopes to the students.

The nursing students who received Littmann stethoscopes are: Caresse Aboyure, DeKalb; Alex Dolister, Lee; Rebecca Giroux, Steward; Fred Hornbuckle, Cortland; and Chad Rowcliff, Cortland.

The Community Support Group is the local arm of 3M that provides charitable assistance and support. Although the national 3M Corp. provides recognizable support in a variety of ways including scholarships to Kishwaukee College and other educational institutions across the country, the Community Support Group is designed to be community-specific by volunteering, assisting and donating in ways that are unique to the local community.
