Falling Into the Streets
A Day of Community Engagement
Into the Streets is designed to introduce more students to thoughtful community service and to provide a learning experience that will challenge them to volunteer on a regular basis. Into the Streets is about training large numbers of student leaders, forging powerful coalitions between diverse campus, community, and national organizations, and fostering a new purpose and insight in the college community service movement. The Into the Streets theme changes every year, with this year's theme being Falling Into the Streets! Be on the lookout for tabling in the BSC concourse to buy a shirt with this year's design!
