spacerbracket"In classes, in the media, and in our own life experiences students learn about and witness situations in our local and global communities that simply seem wrong. Giving whatever time and skills we can offer to make these wrongs right is our responsibility as witnesses to these situations. No matter how small the contribution, it provides a source of fulfillment and empowerment to us as individuals. "
