is the key to survival The Student Health Center offers free breast exams and mammogram's for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

For most of us, October is a month of ghouls, goblins and candy galore, but it’s also a month to be aware of lumps.

The Student Health Center was out on the Mall on Monday, Oct. 16, raising awareness about breast cancer.

Kaylin Reyna, a public health major at Cal. State Northridge, interns at the Student Health Center and was assisting at the event, answering questions about breast cancer.

“We’re here to give students information, and we have fake boobies that have lumps in them and we’re asking students to feel for the lumps so they know what to look for when they’re doing their self breast exams,” Reyna said. “We have free breast exams, so you can come in and make an appointment at the health center along with a physical exam.”

The Student Health Center had a tent set up with information flyers and pamphlets to give out about breast cancer. They also had written facts for students to read. Students who touched and examined the fake breasts and read the facts, were given prizes such as, breast cancer awareness socks, razors and bracelets.
