To help her out, Religious Studies Department Head Jack Sanders has established a relief fund which he hopes will help her to pay her bills and replenish her book supply until she gets re established. “I'm accepting contributions in any amount from anyone," says Sanders. “Jennifer has suffered a severe calamity and is in a difficult financial situation, and I'm doing what I can to help.
