The Feinstein Enriching America Program administered by the Vice President for Student Life is integrated into each student's academic program as part of the Freshman Seminar Experience. Students are introduced to opportunities for community service at the beginning of freshman year, participate in an individually selected project during the year and culminate their first year with opportunities for critical reflection on this experience via journaling and discussion in established seminar groups.
