Title
Community Service and Study Abroad

Synopsis
Community service can be an important part of students’ study abroad learning experience. Making contacts within the host culture (schools, local chapters of US organizations, and various shelters) is a good way to get started. Getting into new cultural areas and situations helps students get a unique perspective on cultural differences that may or may not otherwise be apparent and offers them experiences of a lifetime.
