Out-Of-Class Experiences to Promote Volunteerism

Abstract

The purpose of this presentation is to describe two programs, which are designed to encourage volunteer ism on the part of undergraduate students. The first program described is a credit-bearing internship; the second is a non-credit community service program. As part of our presentation we will describe the major aspects of our internship program and provide anyone interested with the write-up describing our program. Likewise, we will, provide examples of the projects on which our students have participated for internships and for community service activities.
