Because Hunter knows that their premed students volunteer more than anyone in the school I have been asked to BEG and PLEAD with each of you to register for this volunteer challenge using any volunteer work you are currently doing at a non-profit agency (hospitals, vet hospitals, clinics, volunteer ambulances, nursing homes, internships at non-profits (Bellevue Pavers, etc) and make Hunter the number one college for service in NYC! I completed the registration and it is very easy to do. Just give them the contact information for where you are volunteering and log your hours completed thus far (they will verify the hours so don't exaggerate). We are over 200 points away from first place college St. John's! Let's beat them really bad-and postbaccs should join as well--- you are Hunter students now! Top ten students will be able to intern with the City of New York this summer. Hunter Competes in the NYC Service College Challenge for Volunteerism! I am proud to announce that Hunter has been invited to participate in the NYC Service College Challenge, a government-sponsored initiative that will set a new standard for volunteerism by New York City colleges. "Everybody has something to offer," is the College Challenge slogan, and Hunter's faculty, students, and staff have everything to offer: knowledge, commitment, energy, passion, and ability. Together, we can make a difference to our city's most under-served citizens and demonstrate-once again-that Hunter is the most socially responsible school in New York City! To learn about volunteer opportunities and how your service hours can help make Hunter #1 in the College Challenge, contact the Hunter Campus Liaison at <mailto:[log in to unmask]> [log in to unmask] Need more of an incentive? The top ten students who log the most service hours will be awarded the opportunity to intern with the City of New York this summer. Let's go Hunter! _____ From: Eunice Lewis-Broome [mailto:[log in to unmask]] Sent: Thursday, February 11, 2010 2:30 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Hunter Competes in the College Challenge! Importance: High Dear Lolita, Per our conversation, attached are two announcements concerning the College Challenge; one was sent to the Hunter community from Vice President Eija Ayravainen, and the other one was in last week's Hunter Gatherer, our bi-weekly college-wide e-newsletter. If you could send these notices out again to the students in the health professions, I would be most appreciative. I am the campus liaison for College Challenge. At the moment, St. John University is in first place, but I know Hunter can outpace them with the help of all those in the health profession who are doing more volunteer work than the rest of us at 68th Street campus combined. Stir them up Lolita, and let's make Hunter #1 in New York City. Thanks for all your help, Eunice Eunice Lewis-Broome Special Projects Manager & Assistant to the Vice President/Dean of Students Hunter College 695 Park Avenue, Room 1122-East New York, NY 10021 212-772-4879 212-650-3266 (Fax) "If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more, and become more, you are a leader."
