Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.
- Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Day o f Service at Lewis & Clark
Instead of a day off from work or school,
Lewis & Clark College students, faculty and
staff members will celebrate the legacy of Mar
tin Luther King Jr. with a day of service.
The office of student leadership and service, in
cooperation with the office of ethnic student
services, is hosting Lewis & Clark's first Martin
Luther King Jr. Day of Service on Monday, Jan.
15.
"By honoring Dr. King with a day of service,
we are hoping to reflect Lewis & Clark's genuine
commitment to civic engagement," said Kelly
Hoover, coordinator of student leadership and
service. "We are turning community concerns
intocitizen action."
Lewis & Clark has joined the national Day of
Service effort by planning three volunteer op
portunities for staff, faculty, students and their
families to participate. Volunteers can work to
weatherize homes at a local low-income housing
complex, move books at Roosevelt High School
to make way for computers, or assist with a
water quality education program for low-in
come families.
Thomas J. Hochstettler, president of Lewis &
Clark College, has announced that the College
will remain open for the holiday. More informa
tion is available lclark.edu/dept/service/mlkday.
