Engage in our Community

Many opportunities are available for students who participate in service learning, civic engagement, or community service projects in the Garrett County and the surrounding area. Students who complete a combination of these hours are honored and recognized at commencement, as part of the Service-Learning and Community Engagement Program.

Through their service experiences, students develop new perspectives, build their skill set, and learn to give back to the community that supports them.
