Wake Forest University honored for community service

Wake Forest University has been named to the President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll for this year. This recognition is given to schools that engage their staff, faculty, and students in achieving results that can be measured in the community.

This may be of interest to those in nearby Youngsville who follow the news activities and events at the nearby university. News of such recognition is often made known throughout a community and region with various kinds of printing services.

The categories in which Wake Forest University was recognized were education and general community service. The first category recognizes institutions that have committed to improving the educational outcomes for youth and children, while the second category honors those that have improved the quality of life for those who live off campus.

Factors used to select colleges for these honors include the extent to which service-learning is embedded in the curriculum, the commitment of the school to long-term community and campus partnerships, the innovation and scope of service projects, and measurable outcomes in the community as a result of such projects.

Wake Forest encourages students to be more mindful of civic responsibilities. Over half of its students have a priority to volunteer as part of their educational journey, volunteering at service agencies in the community while others travel abroad or around the country to participate in projects.
