A Jewish student group in California shaved 87 heads in four hours May 18 and raised $1,200 for a local children’s hospital. “What girlfriend isn’t going to like it when their boyfriend comes home and says, ‘I shaved my head for charity?’ ” one of the students in the effort, organized by the Union of Jewish Students at the University of California at San Diego, told a local television station.
