On Day 2 of integration the sophomores spent time volunteering at the Ronald McDonald House, Midlands Humane Society, Arrowhead Park, The Phoenix Movie Theater, the City of Neola, the City of Underwood, and the 712 Initiative. #WeAreTheU








The sophomores spent their two days of integration focusing on community service. The first day was spent on the Charles E Lakin Campus where they learned about the history of Charles Lakin and his foundation. Groups spent time cleaning up around the campus and helping at Together Inc., Firefly, the Micah House, and the Child Development Center. Their afternoon was spent helping Nee Visions Homeless Services move out of their storage space and counting shoes from their recent shoe drive. #WeAreTheU
