Community Engagement & Service
Whether you're building homes for low-income families, helping to feed families or tutoring students in a developing nation, you don't just enhance the lives of others when you serve. You enrich your own life as well.
You'll have countless opportunities to make a difference here, starting with a service trip the summer before your first year.
And we help you track your service hours to meet volunteer requirements for your Greek organization or beef up your résumé.
