The School of Business requires all incoming students to participate in the Junior Achievement program through its Learning Communities class. Business students teach elementary students basic business conceptsusing the Junior Achievement curriculum. Students from the School of Medicine were involved in the Laptop Kids Computer Program at Christamore House and the Safe Sitter program. The School of Liberal Arts has developed a School to Work program that offers classes in economics, history, and tax preparation. It is important to note that all RCMs reported contributions to K-12 programs.
Coaches take an active role by participating alongside student-athletes.
Skills clinics were offered to children on campus and at community sites by the women s basketball, swimming, tennis, and volleyball teams, and the men s basketball, golf, soccer, and tennis teams. Student-athletes and coaches provided a total of 1445 hours of community service through 21 community service activities. CPSL used the information from the survey to report to Chancellor Bepko for his state of the campus address on December 2, 1999. We acknowledge that this report falls short in capturing all of the community service activities, however, it is an important step in capturing some of the contributions of students, faculty, and staff. We look forward to obtaining a more complete portrait of community service activities in future surveys.
