GREEN BAY-University of Wisconsin-Green Bay student members of Volunteers in Tax Assistance (VITA) will again provide free income tax assistance for low-income individuals and families, the elderly, and students. The service will begin Monday, Feb. 4, and continue through Monday, April 14. However, no service will be provided the week of March 17, because of the University's spring break.

Scheduled times and locations for tax assistance are:
Mondays, 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., Fort Howard Family Resource Center, 520 Dousman St.
Tuesdays, 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., Oneida Center for Self-Sufficiency, 2640 West Point Dr.

UW-Green Bay students have been providing the free income tax return service for nearly 35 years. The student coordinators for 2008 are Brooke Borchert and Ann Lor, both senior Accounting majors.
