"Members of a sorority were urged to lie about their health to qualify as donors in a 'competitive' blood drive at the University of Missouri-Columbia (search), a school that once set a world record for blood collection."
COMPETITIVE??? WHY in the world is a blood drive, competitive?????! Unbelievable!

Women can be VERY competitive when it comes to charity work.

That happens all the time. Every year around the time of the big South Carolina-Clemson football game here, the two schools have a competition to who can donate the most blood. It's silly bragging rights, nothing more.
