STEPHENVILLE (April 5, 2016) — Tarleton State University students take to the community this Thursday, April 7, for the school’s first Service Day. More than 100 service opportunities—everything from cleaning the Bosque River to teaching senior citizens computer basics—are on the “to do” list.
The day is part of Texans Team Up, a full week of activities dedicated to the university’s core value of service.
Service Day opportunities have an academic focus. Appropriately referred to as learning experiences, Service Day opportunities are in concert with efforts by Tarleton’s Center for Academic Outreach and Engagement (AOE) to build a culture of social responsibility by connecting academic programs with community needs.
Many Service Day opportunities qualify as Applied Learning Experiences for Tarleton students. Students can see a complete list of Service Day opportunities and sign up to participate at https://orgsync.com/129498/chapter.
