As the year winds to a close this next week, our Class of 2022 advisements are still working on their service learning projects. On an afternoon earlier this week, Dr. Alldred's advisement met at Chestatee Wildlife Preserve to move limbs, pull weeds, and pick up plastic. After their manual labor, the students got to feed the animals with the food they donated!
