Project on Civic Engagement

The Project on Civic Engagement and Social Responsibility combines academic and co-curricular components to motivate students for a lifetime of responsible public citizenship.

Among the Project’s components:

  • Courses addressing ethical concepts and debates about justice and equality, as well as courses that provide opportunities for direct service and social activism.
  • Leadership and service opportunities ranging from Relay for Life to Alternative Spring Break (in both national and international locales).
  • A lecture series featuring Peace Corps representatives, directors of service agencies, and more.
  • Internships in Congressional offices, neighborhood development projects, and other programs that last for a term or longer
