Become an ACE

Are you passionate about leadership, service, and social justice? Apply to be an Advocate for Community Engagement (ACE) with the IU Office of Service-Learning! ACEs are IU undergraduates who serve with a specific agency for at least one year coordinating IU service-learning students and volunteers, communicating with faculty, and engaging in the daily life of an agency. The ACE program provides leadership development for students of diverse backgrounds and interests. Through the support of on-going training and professional development ACEs are challenged to achieve their own potential to serve and lead. OSL is currently seeking enrolled students to apply for ACE undergraduate assistantships for the 2008-2009 academic year. The position is approximately 10 hours per week for a stipend of $3000 per year, starting Fall 2008.
