SEEDS: Students for Education, Empowerment, & Direct Service

The SEEDS office (Students for Education, Empowerment, and Direct Service) brings together students, faculty, staff, and alumni who support community efforts to bring about social change. Matching individual and group interests with local, national, and international opportunities to serve others, SEEDS offers students a chance to join others and actively take part in issues of importance to them.
