The Office of Service and Leadership facilitates students, faculty, alumni and staff involvement in service to the communities in which they live.  The office promotes the campus to be engaged in the community by identifying needs and working as a community to meet those needs.  Programs of the office include student organization based community service projects, service-learning courses, leadership training, and volunteer opportunities designed to help the entire campus become involved with the greater Dubuque Community.
