In 2011, 27 students participated in service-learning and in 2012, 25 students participated in service-learning. Students were able to go to Stirrup Some Fun, Ronald McDonald House, Camp Twin Lakes, or Make-a-wish. Data was collected on their attitudes and found that students rated their service-learning experience as a positive experience.
