Community Service Day 2026 Kickoff

Join us for an exciting annual tradition, Community Service Day, which is a highlight of Welcome Week! This event offers incoming Seawolves a chance to engage in various service projects, both within and beyond the campus, throughout the day. As a token of appreciation, participants will be gifted a complimentary t-shirt and provided with lunch.
