Students de-stressed by throwing pies on other students’ faces Wednesday. Bruins for Healthcare held an event from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. at Dickson Court where students that were stressed from midterms or needed to release frustration got to pie the organization’s board members in the face. Bruins for Healthcare is a student organization that aims to promote personal and professional development through service events or health-oriented workshops led by career professionals, said Aimee Vo, social chair and third-year environmental science student. Students paid $3 for each pie and $1 for each additional topping, which included chocolate syrup, honey, sprinkles and ketchup. The money will go toward an upcoming philanthropy project held by the group.
