Becoming Institutional Goals at TLU

One of the institutional goals for graduates at Texas Lutheran University is becoming committed to active community service. One example I saw of this practice here at TLU was when the majority of the school participated in the Days of the Dogs. There were numerous groups participating in the events such as Greek organizations, TAS, etc. I volunteered with the group Texas Academy of Science. Our project was to clean up about a mile stretch of highway during the day. Getting involved and helping the community really represents the university very well, as well as giving a strong sense of entitlement to the students as they have done a good deed for the community. TLU institutes these institutional goals I believe to graduate more developed and well rounded students for the world. As these goals become achieved the student learns more than just the educational side of things, as they experience things outside of the classroom.
