March can be a hard month in the academic calendar, and we don’t want anyone to go through it alone. The MindHandHeart initiative hopes to make connections across MIT through infinite small acts of kindness and a series of events initiated by students during Random Acts of Kindness (RAK) Week, Monday, March 28, through Friday, April 1.

During RAK Week we’re planning a series of random surprises; they could happen to anyone, at any time, in any of our library spaces. We have also planned some enjoyable activities designed to help you de-stress:

• Cookie decorating at Barker on March 29 and Rotch on March 31
• Letter writing in Lobby 10 on March 30
• Bookmobile with kindness-themed books and media in Lobby 10 on March 30
• Furry First Friday at Hayden on April 1

We hope to see you during RAK Week!
