Tallahassee, FL
Florida State University has launched an awareness campaign to let people know that men can get breast cancer, too. William JP Smith Jr. was a graduate of Florida State University. He had moved away and then returned. He had been diagnosed with breast cancer. This sparked an alliance with the goal of educating people about how breast cancer can affect anyone.
