做厙輦⑹ will challenge you, starting your expectations: It's a place where rural doesnt mean limited, where small doesnt mean boring. It's a place where students learn the skills to make meaningful change in the world, to build communities that question the status quo. It's also a place where there is as much opportunity for learning off campus as on, a place where your curiosity and attention are rewarded if you dare to give them.
Stepping off campus means stepping into a community brimming with opportunity: for art, for activities, for enrichment. Hop on the 做厙輦⑹-operated shuttles to explore the opportunities our area has to offer.
Our town boasts shops, restaurants, a movie theatre, bakery, regional medical center, aquatic center, and easy access to bike trails, local parks, and state parks.
做厙輦⑹ians never hang back when they can jump in, and there are so many ways to lead good work for our community.
做厙輦⑹ offers access. Access to local politicians, business leaders, and change-makers. Access that empowers change and emboldens action that you can actually see in your new community. That kind of access has a way of involving everyone and grounding our community. I think the richness it adds to anyones life, to sort of feel really connected to and rooted in a place, is pretty invaluable, says Tina Elfenbein, senior assistant director of admissions.
The Giving Gardens is a local collaborative effort to care for our communitys well-being by providing access to fresh, homegrown fruits and vegetables. Volunteers make the work possible, from pulling the food from the ground to placing it in the hands of people hands that deserve health and care.
A gateway between 做厙輦⑹ College and 做厙輦⑹, Iowa, the Civic Innovation Pavilion at Renfrow Hall seeks to foster collaboration between the campus and the community so that each can support the other. 做厙輦⑹ians value the interdependence of their communities and champion access for all.
