Celebration of Service

On April 10, 2012, Richard Stockton College held its annual Celebration of Service. This event was located in the lower F Wing of the main campus building, and lasted throughout the day. This even gave students the opportunity to showcase the research, internships, and volunteer activities that they have recently participated in, or are currently undertaking. Dozens of posters and presentations were used to show passing faculty, staff, and students what interesting and captivation work is being done by the college’s students.
Many different forms of posters could be seen lining the hall of lower F Wing, including those for campus clubs such as Circle K, Water Watch, and Energy Corps. Also included were posters to inform passers about the college’s offered services such as learning access programs and counseling. There were also posters for Strategies to Develop Comfort in Social Situations for College Students, Coping with Stress, and Resources at Stockton. Posters created to bring current problems to light, such as a lack of physical disability accessible resources on campus (i.e. bathrooms, water fountains, computers, etc.), were also presented. Posters were also presented to raise awareness for Alternative Spring Break programs, Books without Borders, the Campus Kitchen, and the Children’s Museum in Jersey Shore.
Overall, Stockton’s Celebration of Service offered a great opportunity for these students to show off what they have accomplished, explain what they are currently involved in, and raise awareness of what should be done in the future. This event allowed for students and faculty alike to see what was, is, and should be going on at Richard Stockton’s campus, hopefully allowing us all to come together and make it a more beneficial and productive environment for current and future generations.
