commitment to service and to
serve as a successful model
to other institutions which are
interested in starting service-

9. SERVICE: The first column ranks the school
by the number of alumni who go on to serve in
the Peace Corps, relative to school size. The
second column ranks the school by the
percentage of students who serve in ROTC. The
third gives the percentage of funds in federal
work-study money that goes to community
service (versus non-community service). The
fourth column shows the school’s rank on a
combined measure of the number of
students participating in community
service and the total number of service
hours performed, both relative to school
size. The fifth column shows the school’s rank
on a combined measure of the number of
staff supporting community service,
relative to the total number of staff; the
number of academic courses that
incorporate service, relative to school size; and
whether the institution provides
scholarships for community service.

23. “Few wi! have the greatness to bend
history itself, but each of us can
work to change a sma! portion of
events. It is "om numberless diverse
acts of courage and belief that
human history is shaped. Each time
a man stands up for an ideal, or acts
to improve the lot of others, or
strikes out against injustice, he sends
forth a tiny ripple of hope, and
crossing each other "om a mi!ion
different centers of energy and
daring those ripples build a current
which can sweep down the
mightiest wa!s of oppression and
resistance.”
Robert Francis Kennedy
