Volunteering
Volunteering
in the community allows you to make a difference in the lives of
others while you explore a career field, meet professionals in the
non-profit and government sectors, and build skills for working
with people, such as communication, listening, motivating, judgment,
and conflict resolution.
Campus and
Community Programs
-
Volunteer Extravaganza is held during
Bronco
Bash at the start of the academic year each fall. Meet
many agencies in one location and learn how serving community
needs translates into experience.
-
Adopt-An-Agency
pairs student groups, classes, and organizations with local non-profit
organizations to provide on-going volunteer support for a minimum
of two semesters.
- Volunteer Alliance offers student leaders committed
to service the opportunity to come together to strengthen the
partnership between campus and community. Students network with
organizations, share ideas, and collaborate on projects to increase
student awareness of volunteering.

of applied learning when evaluating resumes.
