Community service: the use of one's talents and expertise for the betterment of community, environment and the world. Community is considered in the widest sense: the community in which one lives, works, and
interacts.
Community service takes many forms:
 | service learning assignments provide academic credit and opportunities to
assist service organizations with a level of expertise that they might not
be able to afford |
 | service to organizations on and off campus may provide leadership
experience and exposure to ethnic and/or other minority groups which reflect
the broader array of diversities of abilities, education, and socio-economic
groups existing in society |
