On April 7, 2004, Ithaca College hosted the sixth annual Take A Child To Work Day.

This is an event organized in conjunction with the Ms. Foundation's "Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work"® Day. Over 30 children and 25 adults attended this year's exciting program. On behalf of the organizing committee, we would like to extend our thanks to you for creating a successful program this year.

• Occupational therapy for their presentation on the creative, fun, and therapeutic profession of OT, with special thanks to Emily Carey and Abby Rohlfs
• Library staff for the "Stump the Librarian" session; in particular: Lis Chabot, Jennifer Strickland, Jim Bondra, and Bridget Bower
