A
Self-Design Proposal
Do you have an interest in completing your service with a site not listed? Do you have a connection to the site or
do you need the help of the Community Service Office? Students interested in completing service at a nonpartner site must submit a Self-Design proposal to the Director of Community Service for approval. Students must
complete their service at a partner site and/or in Springfield, unless the opportunity is not available or cannot be
arranged by the Community Service Office. Your proposal for service needs to meet the guidelines for CMSV 100
and you will need to explain how your experience will help you achieve the desired outcomes of CMSV 100. In
reviewing the proposal, the Director will consider if the type of experience could be provided at one of our partner
sites and if the gifts, skills, or knowledge you would be using will be a benefit to one of our partner sites.
Proposals must be submitted by the Friday of the 4th week of the semester or prior to starting the service.
Alternative Spring Break Trips- **Participants have already been selected for Spring 2011**
Another option for doing a portion of your service hours for the requirement is to participate in an alternative
spring break trip sponsored by a Wittenberg organization/department. To fulfill the community service
requirement, you must register for CMSV 100 during the semester that the trip is offered and meet all of the
requirements of the course. An approved alternative spring break trip counts for 20 hours of the 27 service hours
needed to complete CMSV 100. The final 7 hours of service must be completed in the Springfield community.
An application, orientation/training, substance-free waiver, and a deposit are typically required. If a Wittenberg
organization/department wants to have their spring break trip count for the requirement, then they must submit a
Community Service 100 Alternative Spring Break Proposal to the Director of Community Service in the fall semester.
For more information:
Please contact us at [937] 327-7523, e-mail us at [email protected], visit our website at
www.wittenberg.edu/communityservice or stop by the Community Service Office at 723 N. Fountain Avenue.
The Community Service Office provides students with opportunities to serve, to connect with the greater
Springfield community, and to reflect on the service experience to better understand themselves,
community needs, and their responsibility in advancing the common good.
