As the Southern Illinois winter begins to turn to spring, many people turn their thoughts to their lawns and gardens. Alan Walters is an assistant professor in Southern Illinois University Carbondale's Department of Plant and Soil Science. He can provide the answers that will help keep your garden and your thumb green. Uncle Sam expects to hear from you by April 15. Don't worry, students at Southern Illinois University Carbondale have volunteered to make tax time easier for those who need help.
All volunteers receive specialized training and are certified by federal and state revenue agencies.
Students provide assistance through programs at public libraries, senior citizen centers and at the law school.
