On Sept. 26, IU Southeast had their second Out of the Darkness community walk.

This walk was done to fundraise, honor and support victims of suicide.

Michael Day, personal counseling director, said that there were more participants, more fun, better weather and likely, there was more money raised this year than last year. Day said that it is likely close to $2,000 was raised.
