Service
Introduction
Student Leadership and Civic Engagement provides a variety of programs and service opportunities with community partners in the many neighborhoods of Chicago, supporting students to become lifelong active citizens. We define community service for students as the process of engaging in volunteer activities without pay to help give back to their community.
This can include:
- Student organization involvement*
This should not include:
- Hours spent on fundraising specifically for the organization
- Hours spent recruiting members for the organization
- Hours spent on meetings related to club operations and business
- Donating funds
- Political lobbying
- Religious instruction
- Conducting worship, or service only to family members.
