Center for Civic Engagement at Bard College

To celebrate the College’s 12th Annual Martin Luther King Day of Engagement, more than 250 Bard students participated in volunteer opportunities, campus projects, workshops, and panels over the holiday weekend. Students chose from a dozen engagement opportunities on campus on Saturday, January 15. They included creating compost stations for residence halls, assembling Picture Exchange Communication System boards for Ramapo for Children, and planting microgreens at Kline. On Monday, students attended panels on social entrepreneurship with Bard alumni/ae and guests from Bard’s international partner campuses who have turned their activism into civically engaged careers.
