Public Service and Volunteerism

An event highlighting the value of service as a pathway to leadership and global citizenship. Featuring a guest speaker from the Peace Corps with direct experience in international service and volunteerism, this program will connect students to real-world stories of impact, growth and civic engagement.

The session will explore the role of volunteerism in strengthening communities, the skills gained through service, and how international experiences can shape careers in public affairs. A Q&A will follow that allow students to ask questions about opportunities, challenges, and the long-term benefits of service. This event also gives students a glimpse of the outside world.
