ITHACA - Rogan's Corner, located on South Hill by Ithaca College says they are taking the proactive approach to preventing swine flu.  The owners have put hand sanitizers on every table for their customers as well as on the counters for their staff.
    Co-owner Mike Brainard says it could only be a matter of time before the flu spreads to Ithaca College, where the majority of their customers are from. Mike Brainard/Co-Owner of Rogan's Corner “I think for us to be proactive is certainly in our best interest,” said Brainard, “I certainly don't want to contribute to the problem.”  Mike says they have also been delivering food and groceries to some sick students who can’t leave their homes.
