Service to others is deeply embedded in ÂÜÀòÔ´´â€™s Franciscan heritage and remains an important part of our educational mission today. Our goal is to develop not just educated citizens, but engaged citizens actively involved in work to better their communities and the larger world.
We work to meet that goal in a variety of ways. As an ÂÜÀòÔ´´ student, you'll have opportunities to get involved in service projects with our community-based partner organizations, which operate food banks, run mentoring programs, improve the environment, promote social justice, and support other important causes.
ÂÜÀòÔ´´ embraces service learning for what it does for others and for what it can do for you as a student. Projects help you draw meaningful connections between classroom learning and the world beyond the campus. And most importantly, service learning will help you understand your role as a responsible citizen in a complex world. Students will receive 15 hours of service upon passing and fulfilling all requirements of the course.
