Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

Haverford College prides itself on creating good world citizens. Part of that educational experience is through community service. There are Three main entities on campus that participate in community service. 8th dimension, Athletics and The Center for Peace and Global Citizenship. All athletes participate in community service(400) and all Freshman participate(300) during their first semester at Haverford.Questions arise when asked how many freshman are also athletes. Currently there is no official data on the exact percentage of how many students participate in Community service.
Institutional Research has recently applied to the President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll. Data from that report is included here. Haverford College has also formed a Community Service Summit Committee that intends to collect hard data on community service participation.
Former President, Tom Tritton, stated that 8th Dimension alone had 60% student participation. Web site is posted above.
