Creating an ALIVE Community: Leah E. Shaw Assistant Director of Residential Life Binghamton University Infusing Service Learning into Residential Life

What is the ALIVE Program? Hinman's ALIVE program is central to the spirit of the community. Community Service and Leadership are area specific themes in the college, and are integrated into the majority of Hinman traditions, making them not only fun, but also focused. Hinman is the only community with this emphasis - not as a requirement, but as a challenge and opportunity to be active and involved.
