Agents

The Cougar Volunteer Program has working agreements with off-campus agencies and on-campus departments to provide volunteer opportunities for students. Students who sign up through the Volunteer and Service-Learning Center for volunteer activities on campus or in the community will be credited with service hours for each hour they volunteer. Participants will be awarded certificates or plaques for various levels of participation. Students who volunteer a minimum of 100 hours during the academic year, are eligible to apply for $500 in scholarships.
