Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
The 2021-22 academic year was strongly impacted by COVID 19, which reduced overall participation numbers. Included in these statistics are Academic Internship and Service Learning course placements; along with placements from clinical program internship, field work and practicum courses from the Social Work, Kinesiology, Nursing, Psychology and Teacher Education departments, in which students served in community organizations and schools to assist low income populations and support programs. Due to ongoing need to build tracking systems, the following departments are not included in our overall statistics this round: Work-Study and Cal Poly Humboldt Clubs, Residence Halls, and Athletic Programs – all of which have many students serving at a multitude of community volunteer events and in some cases hold fundraisers for groups in need throughout the year.
