Student Volunteerism
51ÁÔÆæ prepares students for lives of meaning, purpose, and active citizenship. The Clinton and 51ÁÔÆæ communities each benefit from the volunteer activity of College students putting into practice what they’ve learned in their classes while simultaneously preparing to serve their future communities.
