What Can YOU Do?
The life of a student is a busy one. But, somewhere in between
the exams, papers, basketball games and parties, there's a good
chance you might have the time to help someone else. You can
tutor illiterate adults, rock babies in the children's hospital,
work in a shelter for the homeless, become a big brother or
sister...the possibilites are endless. S.E.R.V.E. works with stu-
dents in various ways by providing on-going volunteer place-
ments, one-time service projects, information about campus
and community social action groups, independent study and
research opportunities, and a special elderly outreach program.
Whether you have an hour a month or an hour a week,
S.E.R.V.E. can help you find a volunteer experience that is both
interesting and rewarding. For more information (and to
volunteer!) please call the S.E.R.V.E. office at 936-2437, or stop
by 2211 Michigan Union.
NOTE: February is National Wellness Month: volunteers are
needed for planned events throughout the month. Contact
S.E.R.V.E. for more information.

Java and Jazz
Continues
Did you know you can sit
and sip gourmet coffee
(FREE) and listen to gour-
met jazz (FREE) without
even travelling to New Or-
leans? In recognition of
Black History Month,
Eclipse Jazz is once again
sponsoring its highly suc-
cessful Java and Jazz Free
Coffeehouse Series. The
java is courtesy of the
Michigan Union's Corner
Market and the jazz, this
week, is courtesy of the
Eddie Russ Duo. Russ is a
prominent local jazz
master whose piano
playing is highly regarded
by everyone who hears
him. The coffeehouse will
be held in the Michigan
Union Tap Room on Sun-
day, February 11 from 4-
7pm. Food and bever-
ages are available in
addition to the coffee.
You will even be able to
learn some of the details
on how jazz works and
how jazz musicians make it
all happen during a half-
hour FREE workshop. Stop
by and have a great time
listening to some more of
the Detroit area's best jazz
musicians!

A Glimpse into Another Life
The February issue of "The Criminal Justice and Chemical
Dependency Chronicle: Students and Coordinators Write
About Their Project Community Experiences" is available
today in the Project Community Office. The following is an
excerpt from the February issue, written by Clear House and
Growth Works student volunteer coordinator Kathleen
Doherty.
As far as site is concerned, I want to remember Rachel
telling me about all her past experiences-ones I'd only read
about. Needing to stay in an abusive relationship (or any
boy-girl relationship for that matter), trouble in school
because of trouble at home, wanting to commit suicide, run-
ning away, sex for love. People are really behind every one
of those statistics that I read and that is alarming. I want to
remember my feeling of being overwhelmed-how can any
one person have so many problems? I want to remember
the trailer she is living in--a home the size of what some
people camp in for a weekend. How can you get privacy in
a place so small and in a neighborhood that is so scary and
beaten?
Project Community offers over 30 site placements in Chemi-
cal Dependency, Criminal Justice, Education, and Health
Care. Stop by our office at 2205 Michigan Union or call us at
3-3548 for more information.
