235,000… and counting!
We set out as a community – students, faculty, staff and alumni – to volunteer 186,400 hours of service over the course of our sesquicentennial year. This challenge showcases our commitment to serving the public good. Together, we achieved more than 235,000 service hours as early as the summer, and we continue to give back! Thank you for being a part of this challenge, and it’s not over yet! You can continue to log your service hours through Founders Day, March 5, 2015. Be a part of the 1864 Service Challenge, and together we can accomplish tangible public work that improves the lives of people in our communities and across the world.Featured Volunteer: Arimus Wells
Arimus Wells knows from experience that volunteering can open new doors and ways of thinking. It’s a lifestyle choice that has become second nature to him. He doesn’t wait for the other guy to step up; he is that guy.“College is not entirely about academics,” says Wells, a third-year sociology and public policy major. “The most important thing an institution can do for a student is to prepare them not only for a career, but for life as a citizen. This is why we need students to get involved in extracurricular activities. By getting involved, you’re able to understand who you are as a person and what you’re passionate about.”This is not a new philosophy for Wells, who has logged more than 3,000 volunteer service hours since high school. Moving around in a military family, Wells noticed a stark contrast in cultural perspectives, which he says has enabled him to view life through a different lens.
