Service Learning and Community Service
At Cayuga Community College, we recognize that education extends beyond the formal classroom and we encourage students and faculty to find opportunities to link classroom learning with practical applications in the community. Service learning is a great way to integrate classroom studies with service to the community. Service learning takes on many forms at CCC from student club activities to off-site community service as part of coursework as well as volunteering with community organizations in need of assistance. Students at CCC provide valuable services at local hospitals, nursing homes, elementary schools and Head Start, provide tax preparation services for low-income families, and conduct fund-raising on campus for local non-profit organizations serving those in need.
Americorps Scholarships are also available for service. Students looking for volunteer and community service opportunities should contact:
