It’s a bit early to be thinking about Spring Break, right? Wrong. The UO has developed five programs for students interested in using this week to help others and become educated in a variety of social justice issues. Choosing one of these programs is a great way to bolster your resume. More importantly, participants regularly report that these trips have enhanced their awareness of national and global issues and have contributed to their personal growth.
The themes for Spring 2015 include issues surrounding environmental studies (Hawaii and Guatemala), human rights (Watsonville and San Francisco), and food justice (Los Angeles).
Applications are due November 5. To learn more about these programs and apply, click the image on the left.
